Kitchen lighting ideas

Finding your way
Kitchen ceiling lights
A nice ceiling lamp is a good start for your kitchen lighting. Basic brightness, soft white LED light, is good for orientation.

Safety first
Kitchen worktop spots
Cooks know it best; bright, neutral white light is essential when cooking. Choose an even and non-reflective light for the task area of your kitchen. Functional luminaires installed underneath cupboards, illuminate the worktop for safe kitchen activities.

Versatile dining
Dining table light
The dining area in your kitchen should have a versatile light fitted. A romantic dinner, having friends over, or children studying, the light should fit the activity. A dimmable warm-white ceiling light is a good choice to adjust the light to your needs.

Decorative lighting
Philips Hue smart lighting
Use Philips Hue to accentuate the bar or worktop and create an even more special touch to your kitchen. Place the Hue lightstrip out of view and choose from more than 16 million colours.

Why is CRI important in the kitchen?
CRI stands for Colour Rendering Index. Philips lighting products always have a CRI higher than 80, which is closer to natural outdoor light, where colours are reflected truly and naturally. This is especially important when preparing food, and very pleasant during dinner.
