You’ve heard that kitchens sell a home. There’s a reason for that.
The kitchen is the center of a home – it is the place where we are nourished and can share that nourishment with friends and family.
If you are going to upgrade your home, the kitchen is a great place to start.
Here are a few upgrade ideas that involve lighting:
Natural Lighting
We all love natural lighting – it adds an openness to the kitchen and can even change the mood.
Simply cleaning the windows in your kitchen can let more light in, however for a more drastic change in lighting, there are things you can do short of taking out more wall for bigger windows.
Changes you can make to windows include:
- Removing heavy curtains
- Trading out overpowering blinds for something lighter like wood
- Adding panels or treatments for texture
- Go bare and let the light shine in.
Light Fixtures
Simply changing out lighting fixtures for new ones can alter the mood and space in a room.
From installing lights with a wider breadth, or installing more of them (or less if you’re into a darker, more intimate space), you can control what sections of your kitchen to highlight. For instance, if you have a beautiful stove or eye-catching fridge, you can highlight that focal point with lighting!
