Hi

I'm thinking of having led downlights fitted in the kitchen, however I don't know the best layout for the lights or which ones are best, I was looking at the hybrid 9 ones

The room layout is slightly L shaped

The work surfaces are 600mm, so would I need 4 lights in a square shape where it's narrower or could I get away with just two in line with the work surface?

I've included a plan

4 in square bit, 3 along narrower bit. Don't skimp. Use dimmer. Buy / test ones of different colour temp - makes big difference.

Thanks Mel, Would that be 3 in a row in line with the work surface ? If so I was thinking that might look slightly odd in that the lights would be bunched closer together than the other half of the room. Where the room becomes narrow there is a beam that runs across the room as it was an extension.

The concern I have is that from the work surface to the wall is 1.1m so would there be enough light if I went with a single row?
