What older homes offer in charm and personality is often offset by inefficiency, bad lighting and poor design. Older kitchens often have just a central light fixture and a light above the stove. Obviously this is hardly adequate or safe in a space where you chop, dice and blend.
Modern improvements in the styles of track lighting fixtures make them a feasible option when updating the lighting in an older kitchen. Whereas it used to be a limited choice between an ugly black or white canister, new styles are attractive and available in a range of styles, colors and finishes. The big advantage to using track lighting when you have only one overhead fixture is that you do not have to rewire the kitchen! The next biggest advantage is that you can target the lighting wherever you need it.
