Consider these incredible kitchen pendant lighting ideas while designing your kitchen
The kitchen is much more than just a space for cooking. It is the heart of the home, where you sip your morning cuppa or entertain your guests. It’s where you bond with your family over dinner at the end of a tiring day. A place as important as the kitchen deserves the best lighting. Proper lighting illuminates the work area and accentuates the decorative elements of a kitchen. And when it comes to lighting, two types of lights are commonly used: recessed lights and pendant lights. In this blog, we cover some kitchen pendant lightings you can consider while transforming your kitchen.
Kitchen Island Pendant Lighting In Sleek Steel
A kitchen is a place where, as homeowners, you tend to focus more on functionality over style. But pendant lighting is where you can let your imagination fly. For example, in this kitchen, we have installed three black-coloured stainless steel pendant lightings right over the marble island. These lights elevate the kitchen with a much-needed chic vibe. Plus, the steel body of the light fixtures perfectly complements the steel barstools and the overall seamless aesthetic of the space.
Kitchen Island Pendant Lighting With A Nautical Touch
In most homes, pendant lights are set up right over the kitchen island or breakfast bar if you look closely. The added light provides better illumination and infuses personality to the kitchen. As in this kitchen, two copper-coloured nautical pendant lights hung over the kitchen island. The colour was chosen to match the wooden bar stools and the island itself.
Pretty With Mismatched Kitchen Pendant Lighting
Mismatched pendant lights have been in trend for quite some time now, and it is here to stay. The pendant lights in this kitchen for instance. This set of square, cylindrical and triangle kitchen pendant lighting is primarily hung for aesthetic purposes. It works beautifully in galley kitchens to add a focal visual element. The colour contrast does wonders to this pale turquoise and white kitchen.
Kitchen Island Pendant Lighting For An Industrial Look
Decorative bulbs are a great yet inexpensive way to add style to a space. So, coupled with an exposed industrial-style pendant light, decorative bulbs bring a touch of rustic vibe into an urban home. Don’t be wary of experimenting with two different styles because sometimes, when opposites come together, magic happens, just like in this kitchen.
Tackle Budget Crunch With Cluster Pendant Lights
Opt for cluster pendant lights when you are renovating or designing your kitchen on a tight budget and do not want to compromise on the aesthetics. They are a set of multi-tiered lights. There are countless choices available in the market. In this kitchen, we have used a golden metal cluster pendant light with orbs, which goes perfectly with the chic vibe of the space. It’s sleek and stylish enough that it doesn’t look overpowering yet effectively differentiates the breakfast bar from the kitchen.
Kitchen Island Pendant Lighting In Chandelier Style
When you have a stylish, open kitchen, it deserves beautiful chandeliers. They give the space an elegant yet grand look. The combination of cove lighting in the backsplash and false ceiling along with the chandeliers adds a soft golden hue to this all-white kitchen. Thanks to the massive bay windows in the adjacent living room, the kitchen does not lack natural lighting either. The golden chandelier pendant lights here are used solely to elevate the kitchen’s visual aesthetics.
Choosing the right kitchen light is as important as selecting other elements like countertop, appliances, backsplash and cupboards. It makes and breaks a perfectly designed kitchen. At Design Cafe, we recommend combining ambience and accent lighting. Which style of kitchen pendant lighting did you like the most from our list?
