Noted Orange County interior designer Samia Verbist tells readers about her methods for crafting perfect looks with well-placed pendant lighting in the kitchen

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, October 18, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — “Having the right lighting in a room significantly impacts how the space works and feels,” says Orange County interior designer Samia Verbist, owner of Samia Verbist Interior Design.

In a new article on her blog about kitchen pendant lighting on her website, Verbist expounds upon the importance of the more minor details, namely stylish kitchen lighting that helps draw the viewer’s attention to a particular part of the room – or draw it away from it.

In short, Verbist asks, how do homeowners want their kitchen pendant lighting to serve the space and its viewers?

“Choosing the perfect kitchen pendants is an important decision, and while there are a few rules to keep in mind, there is no one ‘right’ answer,” says Verbist. “…suspension lighting should reflect goals, kitchen style, and personal aesthetic.”

And for those who perhaps have no idea where to begin with choosing kitchen pendant lighting, Verbist and her extensive knowledge (and portfolio of projects) aim to help make the decision process much more straightforward.

Choosing A Kitchen Pendant Style

Pendant lighting isn’t exclusive to the kitchen; Verbist has used it in past projects in powder rooms and living rooms. However, Verbist emphasizes that choosing the proper lighting is essential in a room as important as the kitchen.

With something like translucent crystal shades, the viewer’s eye is allowed to drift. With metal kitchen pendant lights, they serve to keep the focus in the immediate area.

Or maybe a homeowner wants to opt for a minimalist style with glass-globe pendant lights. Verbist admits that, while there is undoubtedly a bevy of creative options, choosing the one that fits best can likely be an intimidating prospect.

“There are so many fun options when it comes to pendants that narrowing down the choices might be the hardest part,” says Verbist. However, she reassures that there is no ‘right’ answer to the question.

“Which one is best? The answer: the kitchen pendant that meets the goal of either stopping the eye or allowing it to continue to another feature,” says Verbist.

After citing examples from her portfolio and others from around the Internet, Samia Verbist reassures homeowners that, as long as they have solid ideas as to which aesthetic works, what the intended purpose of the pendant lighting is, and the focal points of the kitchen are, the decision can seem much less daunting.

Whether it’s the size compared to a small kitchen island with few pendants, or a massive island with multiple pendant lights, Samia Verbist explains the ins and outs of how to achieve a working balance. “[With] a smaller island, naturally, we will use fewer pendants and likely choose a smaller design. For example, if an island fits two counter stools, a pendant width of 8-9 inches will work well.”

Ultimately, it comes back to focal points and where the viewer’s eye goes when observing the space.

For example, she explains, “[homeowners will] also want to consider spacing the pendants from each other and the edge of the island. To get them the right height, let the bottom float about 32 inches above the countertop.”

But deciding upon gorgeous kitchen pendants is hardly a full showing of Verbist’s creative prowess. In fact, with years of experience and education, Verbist can help transform entire homes from dull, uninspiring spaces to jaw-dropping works of art.

But how did someone like Samia Verbist arrive at her chosen creative destination?
