How to select pendant lights for your new kitchen.
Pendant lights are both functional and decorative fixtures in your kitchen. There are so many options – modern, traditional, glass, metal, big, small. Pendants should fit within the general style of your kitchen, but they can also be a bold statement piece. During the design process, we help you select the perfect pendant for your new kitchen.
When deciding what pendant to get, we first look at the size of your space - including the countertop/island it will hang over. Does the space require two lights or three? The size of the pendant will help us decide how many you need.
Next is deciding the design of a pendant. Some of our clients know exactly what they are looking for, and some need our help with selecting a pendant. The good news is that there is a wide variety of options to choose from - glass, metal, ceramic, weaved, fabric, etc. - and we can assist you with selecting the perfect pendant for your space.
Some of our favorite lighting vendors include: Visual Comfort & Co., Lucia Lighting & Design in Lynn, Mass., Hudson Valley Lighting Group, and Chloe Winston Lighting Design. All of these vendors carry multiple brands in a large range of price points.
We love the variety of pendants in these kitchens we’ve done. You can see how much of an impact the lights can make on a space!
