LED STRIP LIGHTS FOR TASKS AND AMBIENT GLOW
Use LED strips to add clean light where fixtures will not fit. Under cabinets they brighten prep zones without glare. Inside coves and shelves they add depth and a soft outline that makes the room feel finished.
Plan by room: For counters and islands, see layout ideas in Kitchen Lighting. For shelves, media walls, and ceiling coves in shared spaces, explore Living Room Lighting. Keep color and brightness consistent so open plans feel calm.
Color and quality: Choose a single color temperature across connected rooms. two thousand seven hundred to three thousand kelvin feels warm and relaxed. three thousand five hundred kelvin reads a bit cleaner. For help with color and accuracy, read our guides Lighting Color Temperature and Light Bulb Types and Uses.
Power and control: Match the power supply to total wattage and give yourself a little headroom. Use a compatible dimmer or driver for smooth low levels. Place strips in channels with diffusers where you can see the source so dots blend into a clean line of light.
Quick guidelines
- Length and cuts: measure runs carefully, use factory cut points, and plan wire leads around corners.
- Mounting: clean the surface, press the adhesive evenly, or use clip and channel kits for long runs.
- Brightness: higher lumens for tasks, lower lumens for accent. Aim for even coverage instead of one very bright spot.
- Safety: confirm dry, damp, or wet rating for the location and keep drivers in ventilated spaces.
