The colour temperature of the LEDs suit the finishes of the first kitchen, but the second kitchen , with wooden effects, needs a much warmer LED. A fine line when working in kitchens as the cooler the LED, the better the preparation light. Tough one!

Hiya - I agree to keep the finish of the pendants the same as your handles. Also noticed that the colour of your units and floor are all cool toned so I would stick to that rather than warmer tones. Also noticed you have very clean lines and straight edges with that in mind I suggest a simple elegant pendant in nickel also comes in three different sizes. Without knowing your ceiling height vs island height I would go for the medium sized 19.2W x 28.6H x 19.2D (cm): https://www.jim-lawrence.co.uk/walcot-glass-pendant-light/walcot-glass-pendant-light-in-nickel-3480ni?returnurl=%2fwalcot-glass-pendant-light%2f Let me know what you think?

Did you mean to attach a photo? It didn't show up.

Thanks for commenting! The kitchen design fell in place driven on the back of the fact that we really wanted to create a small area for our children at the back of the room. It was important to me that this was an uninterrupted space which we wouldn’t constantly be walking in and out of. We also didn’t want to do any building work so it made sense for the children’s area to be where it’s now marked. You can also see that that wall is full of windows, the larger one being low and mid leg height so it wasn’t the easiest place for a kitchen counter. Plus I understand gas hobs cannot be next to a window. With all that in mind the majority of the kitchen has to be on that wall. Our current kitchen goes ever so slightly over the french doors and it’s really no problem (even it becomes hazardous as the children get older we can move them if necessary). We opted for the sink to be where it is so we can comfortably get a large toddler tower for children’s messy play and hand washing in front of it without struggling to get past (I have twins). Hope this all makes sense. Kitchen is 6.1 x 3.2m The dining table isn’t to scale and I’m just showing where it will go.
