Size

• The size of the track lighting fixtures you use for the kitchen should match the purpose of the lighting. Small bulbs and fixtures are best if you're using the track lighting to showcase antique china or kitchen cabinet decor; larger lights are best if you want to highlight the main cabinet or counter top in the space, since you'll likely be using this area to prepare food before cooking.
  
  

Function

• Track lighting can be installed in places like the inside of drawers or around a display of dishes or utensils in the kitchen. This will allow you to clearly see the tools you'll need for preparing a meal, especially if you're using halogen or fluorescent lights. Track lighting near the stove area will also help you to prepare your meals with ease and check on items that may be slow cooking or baking.
  
  

Features

• Track lighting for the kitchen is more appealing when it matches the decor in the rest of the space. For instance, if the kitchen is decorated in red or black, red track lighting is especially eye-catching. If you've decorated your kitchen with flowers, bulb holders in the shape of tulips or roses add an elegant touch to the kitchen.
