Do you want to give more style to your kitchen? All you need to do is adopt one detail that will make all the difference.
No need to spend a fortune to have a kitchen that looks like it’s worth thousands! Whether your room is a little dated or lacks character, there is always a solution to give it more style and make it a space worthy of the name. If you are in the process of designing your kitchen, this is also a detail that you would do well to add to your shopping list. For around twenty euros, not only will your furniture be more elegant, but the entire kitchen will also be more comfortable.
The secret of interior designers for transforming a budget kitchen into a premium space is not only found in the choice of color, cupboard handles or even taps. They especially pay attention to lighting, because it is this element which will highlight the lines and sublimate it. With its large volumes in a sometimes small space, the kitchen requires very special lighting to be well highlighted. While a ceiling light for general lighting is of course essential, you shouldn’t stop there! Adding subtle light just below the wall units highlights the depth of the worktop and gives a chic and warm atmosphere at the same time. Some even add lighting under base units for a bold floating effect.
The good news is that you don’t need to do major work to afford this type of lighting. The LED strips to stick directly to the furniture rely on discreet wires which will connect directly to an electrical outlet. The same goes for LED spots which can be placed in strategic locations to create tailor-made lighting. At IKEA, it costs less than 20 euros for a rod or a spotlight. And if you don’t have an outlet available, it’s not really a problem. There are both LED strips and spotlights that are rechargeable by USB cable. All you have to do is apply the adhesive under your furniture and that’s it. At Action, these devices are very inexpensive and you can equip yourself for just 5 euros. Good plan, right?
