We’ve been choosing transitional (traditional and a bit contemporary) during this reno. I like Shea McGee’s style and pottery barn. The table would probably be a natural wood round table farmhouse style with light chairs but i haven’t picked anything. I don’t know how to design. I was considering lantern pendants or kichler everly (size 10.5?) but they don’t have brushed nickel with clear glass. I don’t like the seeded. https://www.lampsplus.com/sfp/6J570/?cm_mmc=GOM-SH--NA--NA-_-6J570&sourceid=DFGPM6J570&gclid=CjwKCAiAgJWABhArEiwAmNVTB2xcUN400PDJjEx2vUf-NXuOEbSEtK57H_CYrKQ0upsPWsZG49UvtRoC5VoQAvD_BwE

Thanks for your response. I agree to skip the under cabinet lights. I think I’ve decided to do 1 light over the shelf to the right of the stove, a light to the left of the sink and a light at the same height to the right of the sink. How does that sound? Alternately I could do a total of 5 lights - 2 to the right of the stove, 2 to the left of the sink, 1 to the right of the sink. I had a designer and an architect do drawings. The architect put the stove in the corner which I hated. I have a vintage Chambers stove that is 37.5” wide. There is literally no where else to put it. We have been through tens of iterations. We are going to do a ceiling vent (again I know it’s not ideal. I’ve read all about it but it’s what we have to do). If I put the stove on the wall where the sink is now it pushes the kitchen too far down into the dining area. If I put it where the refrigerator is I have to put the fridge down into the dining area - which I also don’t want to do. Why wouldn’t I be able to open the window? I was planning on doing a casement window over the stove so it can easily be opened. Here’s a pic of the kitchen now that it’s been demoed. We removed the wall between kitchen and dining room.

If you ever do another post just add pics to the original BTW this is what happens when a cabinet sales person designs your kitchne the lighting needed to be addressed beofore cabinet install so now you need a lighting designer a safe way is to add pot lights out from the upper cabinets far enough so the light lights the work area and does not make shadows on that work area. This will take about one hour of a lighting designer time and IMO well spent.
