Most homes still use the traditional fluorescent lighting which is no longer the recommended type as it is way too bright and it takes away from that homey and cozy effect. However have you noticed how many kitchen have bad illumination which is totally unsuitable for the cooking area. It can be even considered the main hub of the home.
As this room is used more than simply for cooking, it needs proper kitchen lighting which is not only used for background lighting but also for task illumination. This is where the entire family is gathering to have breakfast, lunch and dinner, and this is where friends and family chit chat in the afternoon next to a home bre cup of coffee or tea. While years ago the kitchen was merely there to cook the food after which the moms were leaving this room right away, nowadays the kitchen is one of the most important rooms in the house. If you have a reflective countertop, this can really stress out your eyes. Not only that but various aspects of the kitchen need additional lighting as well, such as the undercounter cabinets and places just above the stove or the dishwasher. Also more often than not this is the place where moms help their kids with their homework after school. |
