The kitchen will require a high level of bright clean light to allow a wide variety of tasks to be performed easily and safely.

In many homes it also serves as a dining area and the opportunity exists to use more area focused fittings to create ambiance.

Traditionally fluorescent fittings were the norm in such rooms however low voltage halogen lighting either as recessed down lighters or track mounted has become increasingly popular and gives greater flexibility.

LED lighting in either strip form or individual fittings will add accent to under-unit and kick plates with exceptionally low running costs.
