We’re nearing the middle of January and this is the time of year when many of us become sensitive to the shortened number of hours of daylight. It’s normal for people to have table or floor lamps in their living rooms and bedrooms but it is more challenging to add supplemental kitchen lighting. This being said, let’s look at ways to improve lighting and brighten up our kitchens.
It is commonplace for older homes to have only one or two lights in the middle of the room. Glaring fluorescent lights were an unfortunate trend as well. Today, designers put much more thought and planning into the layout of kitchen lighting during the construction of new homes or kitchen remodeling projects.
Using LED or CFL bulbs can reduce your energy use for kitchen lighting. When selecting fixtures, make sure the fixtures themselves are energy efficient and that they are compatible with energy efficient bulbs. As well, you may want to consider smart lighting options that allow you to program your switches and reduce your energy consumption.
