  "description": "Why a bar beats a bowl over an island\n\nThe mistake almost every kitchen makes is a round fitting over a rectangular worktop.\nLight falls off with distance, so a single central source leaves the ends of a two metre\nisland noticeably darker than the middle. Four lamps spread along 90cm of bar fixes the\ngeometry rather than compensating for it with more wattage.\n\nSetting the height\n\nTwo numbers matter. From the ceiling, the rods give you 29.5cm, 60cm, 90cm or 105cm.\nFrom the worktop, aim for 75cm to 90cm of clearance to the bottom of the fitting. On a\nstandard 2.4m ceiling those two constraints usually land you on the 60cm or 90cm rod\ncombination. Work it out with a tape before you cut the power, because changing rods\nafterwards means taking the fitting down again.\n\nBulbs are part of the design here\n\nAn openwork frame has nothing to hide the lamp behind, so the bulb is visible from\nevery seat in the room. Filament-style LEDs in E26 look right and stay cool. Avoid\nnaked high-output bulbs at eye level over a seating side of the island, because\nwhatever is bright and unshaded at 1.6m is glare rather than lighting.\n\nDimming it\n\nAn island does two jobs, and they want different light. Full output for preparation,\nabout a third for eating. Dimmable E26 bulbs plus a dimmer rated for LED loads gives\nyou both from the one fitting, and the maximum compatible wattage of 240W leaves plenty\nof headroom.",
