Tall, thin up light

[karlitob1983]

Hi all

I’m struggling to find an attractive, tall, thin up light. I’ve a very dark area of the kitchen but very very little space for a lamp. I’ve searched high and low and wondered if anyone can advise.

Many thanks

Led strips on top of a cupboard or somewhere appropriate?

Hi,
Can you post a picture of the area?
It may give us an idea of what's possible.
I.e. do you need a desk lamp, or floor standing.
Is there something you can do with under cabinet, or plinth lighting?

Thanks for that. See pic below.

It’s a tall floor standing lamp that I’m seeking. I’ve tried to put in a low level up light - but it created too much of a shadow so it’s a tall one I need.

It’s very tight so the normal uplighters are just too wide and it hits on the curtains.

Any advice would be welcomed.

Interesting, but expensive!:

It would be very possible to make something like this in a DIY way with some LED strips.

Thanks everyone for reply. Some interesting suggestions. The thin LED that has a light along its length is something I’ve come across before but too big a cost to test it out. Prefer up light rather than along length of wall.

Came across this but can’t find it anywhere - tall thin chrome up light

Onwards and upwards.

Not quite what you want, but the company seems to have a good range (search for floor lamp):

Great suggestion. That might work. Cheap enough for a punt anyway.
