What type of lighting is best for a kitchen?
If you want a vintage style, a modern look, or a cosy farmhouse style, our signature kitchen wall and ceiling lights can help you get the perfect lighting for a kitchen. They are designed to fit well in both modern and traditional kitchens. A good kitchen needs a mix of ambient, task, and accent lighting. Here are some popular designs from our collection:
- Kitchen pendant lighting: Our pendants make great conversation pieces over islands or dining areas. They give you focused task lighting and also act as stylish features, made from quality metals and glass. Their design directs light right where you need it most and works beautifully within both kitchen lighting design schemes and modern interiors.
- Flush kitchen mounts: If you need more ambient light or have low ceilings, our flush kitchen ceiling lights are a sleek, low-profile choice that still keeps your space looking modern and clean. These are also ideal as small kitchen ceiling lights for compact spaces.
- Kitchen wall sconces: Kitchen wall lights add soft accent lighting and help create layers in your space. They’re great for highlighting features like backsplashes or textured walls, adding depth and atmosphere. We have vintage and retro styles, alongside modern and contemporary wall lights to suit a variety of interiors.

Can I mix and match different lighting styles in my kitchen?
Yes! Our collection is made to work together, so you can mix pendants, wall sconces, and ceiling lights in styles that complement each other. Pick from classic brass, modern matt black, or sustainable materials like raffia to create your own unique look.
What is the standard ingress protection (IP) rating of the kitchen lights?
Most of our kitchen lights have an IP20 rating. This means they’re protected against solid objects larger than 12.5mm and are safe for general indoor use in dry areas, like over islands, dining spaces, or ceilings away from water. For areas where water might splash, like above sinks, check the product details or look at our bathroom lighting collection. These options have higher IP ratings, such as IP44 or IP65, for enhanced moisture protection. You can learn more in our guide to IP ratings.
