In the ever-evolving world of kitchen design, staying ahead of trends is crucial for creating spaces that are both functional and visually appealing. One innovative solution that's making waves is the use of flexible LED strips. These versatile lighting options can be integrated into various kitchen locations, enhancing both form and function. Here’s a detailed guide on how to use flexible LED strips effectively in different parts of the kitchen.
Inside Cupboards
Flexible LED strips are perfect for brightening up the interior of cupboards. By installing strips along the shelves, you can ensure that every corner is well-lit, making it easier to find items, especially in deep or dark cabinets. This added illumination not only enhances functionality but also brings a touch of luxury to your kitchen storage solutions. Walk-in pantries and cupboards with pull-out shelves particularly benefit from this smart lighting choice.

Underneath Cabinets
Effective task lighting is essential in the kitchen. Placing flexible LED strips underneath cabinets provides direct lighting onto countertops, illuminating workspaces where cooking and food preparation take place. The flexibility of these strips allows for precise installation, easily bending around cupboards.

Under Worktops
Installing flexible LED strips under worktops can cast a soft, downward glow onto the cupboards below. This not only highlights the lower cabinets, adding depth and dimension to the kitchen design but also creates a visually appealing contrast between the worktop and the cabinetry. This subtle lighting solution can make a significant impact on the overall ambience, making the kitchen feel more open and inviting.

On a Plinth
Flexible LED strips can be effectively used on the plinth, or kickboard, of the kitchen cabinets to create a soft, ambient glow. This under-cabinet lighting provides a gentle illumination at floor level, enhancing the mood of the kitchen without being overpowering. It's an excellent way to add a warm, inviting atmosphere, perfect for setting the tone during different times of the day or for various occasions. Additionally, plinth lighting can act as a guide in low light conditions.
