Put the Spotlight on Your Cabinets With a Captivating Lighting Design
Are you building a new home in Houston or giving your current home a facelift? You may want to think about putting the spotlight on your cabinets. Cabinet lighting can be a captivating way to display your collectibles. Whether it’s cabinets with glass doors or open-shelf cabinets, it’s something worth considering that will brighten your cabinet space.
Trendy, Functional, and Practical Cabinet Lighting
If you’re remodeling, no doubt you’re aiming for a contemporary look to bring your home up-to-date. And, if you’re building the home of your dreams, you want to capture all of the latest, trendy styles within the walls of your home.
You also want to consider functionality and maximize the usefulness of your cabinet space. Cabinets are often forgotten spaces of the home. Why not make it a focal point and enhance the quality of your home by installing cabinet lighting?
The current trend taking the home interior world by storm is to install interior cabinet lighting from the get-go. Many homeowners are integrating a lighting design into their remodel and building plans.
After all, we all have a prized collection worthy displaying, rather than hiding it in a dark cabinet. Maybe it’s the set of antique dishes that have been in your family for a couple of generations. Or, maybe you have every antique car collectible from the Franklin Mint?
You might even just decide to transform your kitchen by adding lighting to your open cabinet of earthenware dishes. The aesthetics of a mundane cabinet area can be greatly improved when lights become part of the equation.
And if you’re one of the many homeowners who’s lucky enough to have modern kitchen drawers that hold everything except the kitchen sink, lighting the drawers will help you see what’s inside better.
The possibilities are endless in the capabilities of a trendy, functional, and practical cabinet lighting plan.
LED Lighting For Your Cabinet Design
LED is the latest lighting technology and it brings an energy-efficient lighting solution that will illuminate your cabinets. It’s available in several configurations and LEDs are practically maintenance-free, lasting up to 25 years.
You can integrate LED lighting under your cabinets to brighten all of your counter space. Plus, in the evenings, it can serve as a night light. You can also add puck lights to focus the light in specific areas.
And while we’ve already talked about your interior cabinets and drawers, downlighting is a trend that’s becoming more and more popular. Downlighting is great for adding ambient lighting in more open areas, above cabinets and counters, rather than inside.
The kitchen is a particularly spectacular place to add ambient lighting because it creates a soft, warm glow that is calming and relaxing.
The Takeaway
When cabinet lighting is installed in your home, it should be part of the overall design of your home. It may take a professional lighting company to configure the wiring and maximize the usefulness and design of the lights.
