For a bit more context, we really like retro futurism/space age styles and definitely lean into unique retro styles.

To take advantage of the design of those lights, the first thing I'd do is smooth out the ceiling.

For more examples, search the kitchen pictures on Houzz under Contemporary and Modern styles.

a retro high gloss kitchen.

Retro-futurism made me think of Googie style. That was more an architectural trend than an interior design trend, but here's a thread about a vintage Googie-style kitchen.

I'm not suggesting orange laminate (unless that's your thing), but the use of radiused corners on the cabinets and counters is pretty cool.

Unfortunately, searching for "Googie kitchen" turns up a lot of stuff that isn't Googie and very little that is.
