Short Cuts Light

Good lighting design is a must for modern kitchens because it allows them to come into their own and achieve their full potential. It allows the user to decide what’s needed depending on the mood or situation: atmospheric lighting or the right light for working? Scattered light or spots? Candlelight or relax lighting?

“The decisive impact light has on our living space becomes particularly clear in relation to modern fitted kitchens,” says Frank Hüther, Director of service syndicate AMK (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Die Moderne Küche). “A lighting concept geared towards the user’s individual needs can give perfect shape to the space, show the entire furnishings off to full advantage and have a positive affect on the user’s state of mind. The right light makes even small rooms bright and spacious; it seems to open the space up and, as a result, lifts the occupants’ spirits.”
