KITCHEN TECHNIQUES - Part II

Lighting an Island Counter or Breakfast Bar

These areas demand a combination of task and general lighting, like miniature low voltage pendants. Equipped with tiny halogen bulbs, these decorative fixtures add atmosphere as well. Install pendants high enough so you can see under them and so they won't be splattered.

Low-voltage linear systems equipped with miniature incandescent bulbs can be used to light the inside of cabinets, accentuating the fine China or collectibles inside.

Lighting Coves, Shelves and Valences
