Same fixture or different over sink?

12 years ago

For a task light over the kitchen sink, did/would you go the same as other recessed lighting? Something different?

When we were considering 6" recessed lights, I would have put 4" over sink to differentiate. But we're now going with 4". The plan is to put the same over the sink, but I'm second guessing it. 3"? Nickel trim rather than the white that the rest will get? Something different entirely?

We're installing 6 (I think) 4" recessed lights, 3 pendants over the island, and under cabinet lighting. Plus, one task light over the sink. The way I described it, those will each be a separate switch. The room is 13' x 17'. It's a 1947 ranch/MCM and the kitchen will be transitional I'd say (shaker, granite...)

Since this is more of an aesthetic/personal choice thing, I'm posting here rather than lighting. Thanks for your suggestions, experiences and potential pics.

Oh, and the sink/task light will be centered in front of a 52"w window and there's one of the recessed cans not terribly far away.
