- Kitchen lighting often doesn't get the attention it really deserves. Lighting the kitchen properly can have a massive impact on both the overall functionality and design. In this episode, I discuss the various ways to light your kitchen- from pot lights to undercabinet lighting. Both general lighting and task lighting serve important roles in the final design.

Incredibly helpful with my own kitchen and general home remodel design ideas. The shadowing, man that has been an annoying issue with my current recessed lighting positioning, but I've never really consciously thought it was something that could be fixed. Thank you!
Thanks for watching 👍
Practical advice about kitchen lighting. Perfect. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, your video was very helpful. 😎
Thanks for watching 👍
Clear, organized, and technically specific presentation. Especially helpful was your advice to place overhead pot lighting 24” out from wall so it hits the end of the counter, and divide the room height in half to get the spacing between the overhead lights. Thank you!
Thanks for tuning in 👍
Liked and subscribed! Any guidelines for really high ceilings in the kitchen, such as 12 feet?
Great question. Also for trying to bring cabinets up to the ceiling at 10’ ?
I have a question... I am wanting to do inside cabinet lighting with glass fronted doors to show off a china set, but i have wooden shelving... can i run an LED strip of lights in an upside down "U" shape on the back side of the face frames that shines toward the back of the cabinet? My goal is to get each shelf as evenly lit as i can. Pucks are ok, but i am not fond of seeing the beam angle of light. Great tip on starting the recessed lights at countertop edge! Thanks for such great content!
If you can keep the lighting clean and uncluttered looking, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Thanks for watching!
@@hsdesignstudio ok thanks so much for taking the time to reply! 👍
@@tricia8727 no problem at all! Sorry it took me a while haha
Do the pendant lights go right on the middle? I'm talking about the width between the distance where person washes dishes and the front where they seat. Seems like it leans towards where the stools are, but I dont see anyone explaining rule of thumbs
This really depends on the space. I tend to centre my island pendants. After all they are meant to evenly light the island as task lighting.
for a cheap way to reduce the background hiss you can use audacity's noise removal tool. just make sure you get some room tone first to train it on
I'm going to make a video on how not to make a video. So much hissing
Cool, I'll have a look thanks. Seems to pop up at random times for me even with the Rode mic.
@@hsdesignstudio also if you drop the following freqs by approximately these amounts your voice will sound a lot less harsh. something about your recording setup is overproducing sibilance

@@tubulartuberthanks, I think I have it fixed in the new videos. I know a little more than I did before and do exactly as you mentioned adjusting the equalizer.
If you put your pot lights 24" or so from the wall in a kitchen, this places it too close to any full depth cabinets or range hoods. The hood in the kitchen you filmed this is an example of what happens, you have the light pretty close so it produces hot spots and shadows under it. So do you stagger the pot lights in and out depending on the depth of the cabinets? If you have them at 36" from the wall you can line them all up. If you stand at the counter, the pot lights will light the counter from the side so you are not in a shadow, plus you (should) have undercounter lighting to light up the counter.
I make sure my spacing doesn't interfere with 24" depth cabinets (never had a problem). Even around the hood, they have 8" off the hood and still light up straight down. Generally where you have deep cabinets, you aren't working anyways and at that point it is either for continuity or general light. Yes undercabinet lights are important, but it many kitchens (including mine), I have no wall cabinets in one section and therefore depend on ceiling lights. If they are 36" from the wall, you will cast a shadow on your work surface.
Lighting plans are very kitchen specific and a good one takes time to plan. This is why fast builders just shove 4 pots in the center of a kitchen- its easy and requires no thought or planning.
We don't have island but want to have pendant ,is it possible?
Depending on the kitchen, could be over a sink, a peninsula, even a work surface with no wall cabinets above.
I am looking for ideas for lighting in the kitchen to arrange them in the project in planner 5d. Maybe someone can tell me some good articles on this topic?
Lighting is pretty wide net, but there is lots of helpful information out there
Hi buddy, I manage a kitchen lighting and home furnishings brand would you be interested in doing a review for one of our products? Please let me know!

Yea...we are weird in Canada...it's a mixed bag when it comes to measurements.
