A good lighting showroom should be able to help you with this - there will be lots of options and your choice is likely to depend on your anticipated use of the island or specific areas on it. Different bulbs and fittings will give different spread of light which, in turn, will be further affected by the height of the bulb above the working surface. As you won't want to be working in your own shadow you will most likely want a wide lighting angle so it will be a nearby bulb, not the one above you, which gives your task lighting. I'm not sure where you're based but Thompsons Lighting in Larne, Co Antrim (www.thompsonslighting.co.uk) are very helpful and knowledgeable.

Hi, I'd Base the decision on whether you have underfloor heating and also based on the look you are trying to achieve. If you have UFH, I'd go for large format porcelain tiles, which are easier to clean and maintain with minimal grout lines. Personally, I like wood effect as it warms up the whites and greys but you could go for a stone effect or marble....as your kitchen is neutral, you could pair anything. If you don't have underfloor heating, I find tiles to be very cold under the foot and would rather opt for Luxury Vinyl Tiles such as Amtico or Karndean. They are warmer to the touch, durable and doesn't uplift/expand when in contact with water, if laid properly and you can still get them in wood effect, stone effect, etc. It is quite pricey when compared to laminates or ceramic tiles but it's tough and durable.

It really depends on how high your ceilings are and the type of look you are going for. Will they make a statement or are they purely functional? I'd usually go for pendants with fixed shades because I'm usually committing to a style and I've chosen something I truly love. However, you can get some beautiful glass shades from places like made.com . Industrial style pendants from https://www.industville.co.uk/collections/ceiling-lights-lampshades Or something elegant from https://idyllhome.co.uk/collections/pendant-light - I hope this helps.

Wow Sarah that looks absolutely brilliant! Similar position as the lights in the link that Twyla sent look gorgeous but a bit over my budget (we're doing an extension and literally everything has come in over budget 😩) How lovely to make your own, I think I'm going to attempt it! Thank you very much for the detail on how to do it, very much appreciated! Hope IKEA still have the shades. Thank you everyone! ❤️
