Arrange the panels in a line above the countertop, about 40-60 cm from the wall, so your own shadow doesn't fall on the cutting board. If the kitchen is open-plan, dimmable panels let you lower the brightness when the space is used for dining.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo complete the lighting under the wall cabinets, \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/led-strips-770\"\u003eLED strips\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/led-wardrobe-and-shelf-lights-823\"\u003eLED cabinet lights\u003c\/a\u003e are the perfect complement.
