Yes! There are so many variations of pendants to suit all styles of room, from industrial to elegant.. you will always find something suitable for your space. You can completely change the look of your room by selecting the right light!........ we offer a wide selection of lighting at https://www.tesserahomeinteriors.co.uk/collections/lighting-decorative

Do you have a dining table in the same open plan space - if so, I'd hang a pendant above the dining table and not have any above the peninsula. I saw something someone recently said (controversially) about lights above islands/peninsulas looking like warming lamps and now I can't un-see that. You might find that a recessed spot in the ceiling (assuming you have some of these planned already for the rest of the kitchen) lights up the peninsula just fine and you don't need any pendants dangling down and getting in your face. In a normal-sized kitchen/diner I'd only have pendants above island/peninsula or dining table, not both - and preference would almost always be above dining table.

Hi Georgina, At Litecraft, we aim to solve all lighting challenges without having to compromise on style; we can understand your current predicament and would like to shine a light on the situation💡. Our recommendation would be to have three identical pendant lights that are suspended at different heights above the stairs which will create the illusion of a more spacious staircase. Have a browse of the Litecraft website which is home to a vast range of height-adjustable pendant lights in all shapes and sizes. If you are wary about the height of the first light, we would suggest one of our decorative cable lights which has a height range between 13-100cm approximately (not including the bulb measurement) which leaves you with plenty of room to work with. These pendants allow you to show off an exposed E27 bulb or you could even pair it with an easyfit shade of your choice, giving it your own personal touch. We are always happy to help and would love to see how you get on! Kind Regards, The Litecraft Team.

For me, I wouldn’t put any extra lighting above the breakfast bar as it could look a little cluttered, but I would put something over the dining table, either your current light or something else. As to radiators I’m not a fan of vertical radiators (I know I’m in the minority here!) as I find them quite intrusive in a room. Colour depends on the colours in the room. As you have a pale kitchen then I would go with a light colour. You can’t go wrong with white when the room has a light and airy vibe.
