Kitchen Island Lights

3 years ago

Hi everyone. Could I please have your advice about the size of pendant lights over my new island? Not yet installed but trying to plan ahead! The island is large, 2432 x 1170mm, and I would like the 'traditional' three pendants. I have seen some shades I like with a diameter of 30cm, will they be big enough? I don't want them to look out of proportion....is there a 'rule' to follow? Thanks

Size of pendants will depend also how large the room is. Unfortunately there are no special rules regarding this. But to be on the safe side I would recommend to choose something about 20-25 cm as there will be 3 pendants. Size of attached island is approximately same as yours.

Thank you! It is a large room as it includes sitting and dining areas too. Can I ask where these lights are from? Thanks

Thanks Patricia! Sink has to be on island - my only prep space! Larger sink is with single gas hob some 20 steps away outside the main kitchen. (We live in a small condominium) I attached a photo of the 23" hob. Would this be workable? I was advised to go for a larger hob and use the hob itself also as prep space, as it won't heat up. What's your opinion about that? Thanks again for your comments!

Not having an island in your kitchen is against the norm these days, and I personally love islands as they're a good sitting space as well as workable when you're cooking up a storm.

If you think it'll spoil the design of the kitchen feel free to have it in the pantry. Although it's not common to have it in there, it's your house.

Take a look at Firstlight’s “victory” pendant - we’ve just fitted them on an island your size and they look great.
