Copper and grey kitchen ideas

Copper and grey kitchens.

So 2019 is almost over and we have seen a very busy year with lots of new light fittings, designs and interiors. The most popular trend we have picked up in 2019 that will be even bigger in 2020 is the grey and copper kitchens. We offer a full lighting design service and the amount of kitchens we are working on which are grey in colour, industrial and modern in design with copper detailing such as the handles is massive. We are often tasked with finding copper downlights and copper pendants. Some people want a big statment copper light while others seek a more subtle design with a hint of copper. Below we will go over some of the best lighting solutions we have found in 2019 to help our customers create;

The perfect grey kitchen.

So starting with the ceiling spotlights. Every kitchen design needs a primary source of light. You can get over 500lm from an LED spotlight lamp.  An average sized family kitchen will need around 6-10 of these recessed downlights to afford the right amount of primary light. These can of course be fitted to a dimmer switch to bring the light levels down. We offer polished copper, verdigris patina copper and aged copper industrial fire rated downlights. These are all available to buy online and are all on display now in our Bristol lighting showroom. 

Remember if you need any help with your lighting design please contact us directly.

Next the feature pendant lights. The most popular and best selling pendant this year for us has been the clear glass ball pendant. So much so we have started making our own range of these. The clear glass 300mm ball is a simple and effective design. With the squirrel cage filament lamps still being the favourite lamp these clear glasss balls are a great way to show the lamp off. They also do not obstruct the view across the room. If you want to add a touch of copper to your grey and copper kitchen then we offer this clear glass pendant with a rose gold lampholder. You can even have it wired with a copper or grey fabric cable. These are on display now in the showroom and take 3-4 days for us to wire and test in our Bristol workshop. 

 We also have a massive choice of copper pendant lights that would work in any kitchen, modern or traditional. We have a huge choice on display now in the showroom and a very helpful team of staff all trained in lighting and design. Should you need any advise or help please come and see us. We have been in business 46 years in Jan 2020 and customer service and product knolwedge are both very important to us as a company. Our showroom address should you want to make a visit is Ablectrics 131 Gloucester Road, Bristol, BS7 8AX

Finnaly as with any kitchen you will need your sockets, switches and power. Well we even have a range of copper sockets and wiring accessories. Including USB charging sockets which are ideal for a kitchen island or breakfast bar. Again these are on display throughout the showroom.
