Default Need kitchen caibnet lighting help

Building our retirement home. *SWMBO wants lighting on bottom of upper
kitchen cabinets and I prefer European style cabinets without a face frame.
Would much appreciate any suggestions for some kind of lighting
configuration or type that won't look awkward considering there's no face
frame to hide the lights and/or wiring.
May build the carcasses myself and farm out doors and drawers so if there's
some way I should build them to alleviate my problem, please advise.
Many thanks in advance.

warm white T8 flourescent are great and 75% more efficent than halogen
or incandesant, In a kitchen you generate alot of heat, and halogens
are hot and hard on the AC and bill. I use them under and above
cabinets. With no board hanging down all lighting will be visable.
