this is a rather easy and intelligent way to show a larger room when your kitchen is actually a small trail. oversized lighting draws the eye to the ceiling and helps break down perspective. Both large lampshades soften the feel of linear space, while the reflective cupboard and glazed tiles help light bounces around.
