Lighting systems and concepts for the kitchen

From functional to atmospheric

Light is more than just illumination – it creates atmosphere and ensures a pleasant ambience in your kitchen. With Nolte Küchen’s diverse lighting options, you can easily enhance your kitchen. Whether functional work light, cosy lighting for a homely flair, or indirect lighting without glare – we have the right solution for every style and budget. Thanks to modern LED technologies, you can flexibly adjust light intensity and colour, from cool to warm white, perfectly matched to any mood. Discover how you can ideally showcase your kitchen with light.

Indirect lighting and mood lighting

Lighting can make the crucial difference in decor. Rooms that initially appear cool and sterile instantly become warm and inviting with the right lighting. We show you various ways to create a cosy atmosphere in your rooms:


MatrixART, illuminated handle groove

The illuminated handle grooves of the MatrixArt design give your kitchen a special atmosphere and emphasise the clear lines. At the same time, they provide pleasant, indirect lighting. Both the horizontal and vertical handle grooves can be illuminated individually.

Ambient lighting

Lighting in display cabinets is often not consciously noticed, yet it contributes significantly to a harmonious atmosphere. It highlights dishes, cups, and glasses effectively, optimally showcasing them. The lighting also enhances the depth effect in the display cabinet, creating a spacious feel, especially in smaller rooms.

Recessed lighting in side and base cabinet shelves

Those who prefer open shelves instead of display cabinets don't have to miss out on recessed lighting here either.

Railing system

The MotionLINE railing system offers another stylish option for indirect lighting. The individual elements can be combined individually and equipped with up to three LED strips, depending on the planning situation.

Wall shelves

A wall shelf is often used for individual decoration. When illuminated, it can create a cosy reading corner, a place where you will enjoy spending your time.

Effective and functional: Illumination of the work surface

A well-lit work surface is essential in the kitchen for cooking and preparing food. The lighting should be both practical and functional. Below, we show you various options for optimally integrating work lighting:

Under-cabinet or recessed LED lighting

Under-cabinet lighting is installed by the kitchen fitter at the bottom of the cabinet, while recessed lights almost disappear flush with the surface, optimally illuminating the work surface. Ring lights look particularly aesthetic here, as the decor inside the light is repeated.

Integrated strips in the cabinet base

The light strips in the cabinet base provide good illumination of the work surface and create a cosy atmosphere. At the same time, the interior of the cabinet is subtly illuminated, making it easier to access items such as dishes or food.

Fully illuminated wall cabinet bases

Nothing more: The LED light base in the wall cabinet provides top-quality work lighting.

Illuminated drawers

Drawer lighting ensures that all utensils are always clearly visible and can be arranged in an organised way. This option is also very aesthetic. You can add a special touch to your Nolte kitchen by choosing the interior fittings of the drawers and cabinets from our nolteneo design line. The neoBox drawer is particularly high-quality and, among other things, is also available with interior lighting. This gives your kitchen an extraordinary touch with the interior fittings.
