The kitchen is a place for work, so it is important here the most functional lighting. It is best if the lamps are located where meals are usually prepared. Spot lights work well in this place. You can install them in the ceiling or under the hanging cabinets. Halogen fixtures with single eyes or linear strips work best. They are available in various lengths, so they can be adjusted to the size of the kitchen.
It’s also worth fitting a stove and sink with a spot light. We spend a lot of time at these appliances, so the lighting should be good. You can install a hanging lamp or a single spot light over the sink.

The main light, usually ceiling light, is often a plafond mounted in the middle of the ceiling. You can also decide on halogen bulbs symmetrically distributed in several points of the ceiling.
