kitchen lighting for kitchen with island, table, and peninsula

10 years ago

Hi there, moving forward with our kitchen and trying to decide on lighting. The kitchen has an island with sit down table as well as a peninsula.

Would the most appropriate thing be some pendants going down the length of the sit down table and island structure? Thank you as always. Dimensions are approximately 153 x 225 to the edge of peninsula counter.

Thank you. Should the pendant/chandelier be centered over the length of just the table or should i center it over the total length of the table and attached island? Thanks!

I would say to center a chandelier or large pendant over the length of just the table and then treat the attached island as a separate area for illuminating with mini pendants.

Can't tell the length of the table area, but 3 pendants down the middle seems right, with cans everywhere else.
