Kitchen Renovation with Layered Lighting System

• If you've never considered lighting in your
  kitchen, the time has come. The kitchen is one of
  the most basic, yet essential rooms in your home.
  The more you know about lighting for your
  kitchen, the better equipped you will be to enjoy
  it fully. Well-thought-out layers of light make
  it both safer and more functional. In fact, a
  well-laid plan will make your kitchen an entire
  room rather than just a space that serves as a
  closet of appliances.

What is Layered Lighting?
Layered lighting is a design concept in lighting
design. Layered lighting is about adding multiple
lights to a space, sometimes with the intention
of creating a well-lit and balanced space. Two
common types of layered-lighting systems are
ambient light (for overall illumination), task
lighting (for work areas such as countertops or
desks), and accent/accent task lighting (used for
areas of interest or particular objects).

Ideas for Layered Lighting in the Kitchen

• The most important aspect of kitchen lighting is
  knowing where everything will be, including
  cabinets, appliances, and countertops. After you
  know that information, determining the best
  lighting style and type is straightforward.
  Ambient lighting helps create a pleasant mood in
  your kitchen by creating an overall glow
  throughout the room.

• Accent lights are used to highlight specific
  design elements like cookers, island workspaces,
  kitchen countertop lighting, and more. Task
  lighting helps you see clearly while you cook or
  clean up after meals.

Ambient Lighting
When planning the main lighting for your room,
its important to take into consideration the
layout of your kitchen. Typically, ambient
lighting will be placed above major appliances
and over pathways. In addition to looking at
where lights are and how many there are, consider
the brightness of each light fixture and whether
it should be on the same dimmer as other fixtures
in the room.

Task Lighting
For any room that is used for multiple tasks,
task lighting can be an extremely helpful way to
provide just the right amount of light. In a
kitchen, you might use cabinet lights while
cooking at the counter, or you might install
pendant lights above an island in a more
elaborate design.

Accent Lighting
The final layer of layered kitchen lighting is
accent lighting. Accent lighting is more
decorative, as its entire purpose is to highlight
decorative elements in your home. This kind of
lighting can be effectively used in open shelves
design areas or as additional decor on top of the
cabinetry.

Accent Lighting
It can also be used along with any other
architectural features that you wish to highlight
anywhere in your home. Also, try other decorative
lighting options like a light rope beneath your
base cabinets to highlight the pathways, or use
elegant interior lights inside glass door
cabinets for that extra effect.
