How to Choose the Right Kitchen Bench Lights for Your Home

The kitchen bench is the perfect place to add some extra lighting. It's often an excellent spot for ambient lighting or even task lighting if you need to work on something. However, you'll need to choose your fixture carefully so that it doesn't clash with the style of your kitchen or make it feel cluttered in any way.

1. Choose the Right Height

When determining the proper height to hang kitchen island lights, your primary consideration should be the amount of space between the countertop and the lighting fixtures. Measurements are therefore made from the counter upward rather than from the ceiling downward. You don't want them so low that they will impede your food preparation or so high that you can't take advantage of their light.

2. Choose a Style to Match Your Theme

If you want to create a cohesive look in your kitchen, you should choose a style that is consistent with the overall theme of the room. For example, if you want to create an old-world charm with rustic elements like wooden cabinets and stone tiles in your kitchen, you should choose vintage light fixtures for your ceiling lights or pendant lights over your island countertop. If you have modern-looking cabinets with clean lines and a sleek design, then modern light fixtures would be more appropriate for your space.

3. Choose the Right Bulb

It's crucial that you select a light that is rated for use in damp environments. A good example would be LED lights because they don't contain any filament or glass bulb that could be damaged by water or moisture. They are also more energy efficient so that you can save on your utility costs. However, LED bulbs are not the brightest, so consider another option if you need more illumination or a different colour temperature. The correct wattage is also essential when choosing lights for use in the kitchen to ensure that your chosen lamps don't produce too much heat, which could cause discomfort in the space.

Types of Kitchen Bench Lights

There's no denying that kitchen bench lights are a great way to add extra character, style, and brightness to your kitchen. With a wide range of options available, there's something for everyone. But here are some of our favourites:

Kitchen Pendant Lights

Pendant lights over a kitchen island are a common design element in modern homes, providing both aesthetic appeal and functionality. Pendant lights are very versatile in that they can be used in almost any room in the house, including the kitchen. There are many different styles and colours available, so there is sure to be something that will fit your needs perfectly. They are easy to install and don't take up much space at all.

Clear Glass Pendants

Although technically, they're pendant lights too, they deserve a separate distinction owing to their immense popularity and range of options. These lights come in various shapes and sizes, with the popular style being spherical. However, you can also find square and rectangular versions. One advantage of using clear glass pendants over other types of lighting is that they're easier to clean than other fixtures. All you need to do is wipe them down with a damp cloth once in a while to keep them looking nice and shiny!

Recessed Lights

Recessed lighting is a great choice for kitchens because it creates a comfortable, warm atmosphere that is ideal for cooking and entertaining without obstructing anything. They are installed in the ceiling above your kitchen bench, in many cases, in regular intervals along the length of your bench. The number of recessed lights you need will depend on the size of your kitchen and how much natural light it gets from the windows.

Kitchen Chandeliers

Chandeliers are the fanciest type of kitchen bench lights. They are elegant and classic and can be hung over the kitchen island to provide light for the whole room. Chandeliers are usually made from metal, but they can also be made from glass, plastic, or a combination of materials. If you want to add some drama and class, this will be the best choice for you. Chandeliers are available in various styles, from modern to antique.

Kitchen Track Lights

Perhaps one of the most exciting options on this list, kitchen track lights provide excellent lighting at affordable costs. These lights can be used as accent lighting or primary lighting in your kitchen. They're perfect for a home with a modern, minimalist, or industrial theme.
