LED lighting can be added to green kitchen designs to boost energy efficiency.In addition to greener fixtures such as low-flow kitchen taps and kitchen sinks made from recyclable materials, LED installation can help reduce energy costs.George Clarke, architect and TV presenter, says LEDs are absolutely brilliant and the industry is working to improve their light quality.Speaking at the ideal home show, he said There are some great companies out there that are using gels and designing lamps that can improve the quality. Thats all happening.With old light bulbs, only ten per cent of the energy produced came out as light, he added.LED lights could also be used by homeowners to create mood lighting.In the planning stages, it is important to decide whether the lighting will highlight key spaces or features, or create a focal point in the room, according to designer brand Kandabi.Stainless steel kitchen sinks and sink accessories could be accentuated by strategically placed lighting.
