i will get key of my new double story terrace house soon, my plan is to install plain plaster ceiling for rooms, living hall & kitchen. I like simple and neat of my living hall on top of me.
with plain paster ceiling, it has more 'big space' look feeling rather than (L box) with many decorations.
(L box) not only expensive moreover need extra effort for maintenance in future.
come to lighting, i also think b4 about TS said use LED eyeball light, but so headache for the light laying design.
i prefer small LED down light or eyeball light on plain paster ceiling, it look nice and neat feeling to me.
see my attached photo....need yr comments for this. TQ
I Highly dont recommend you to do that. with plain paster ceiling, it has more 'big space' look feeling rather than (L box) with many decorations.

The eyeball that TS mentioned is MR16 halogen bulb. There are LED equivalent of it but please note that halogen bulb have a very natural colour rendition. That is why many boutiques use them. The LED equivalent colour varies too much depending on manufacturer. There are no standard on the colour. I find that many of the LEDs are either too yellow or too white. A normal halogen MR16 has colour temperature of about 3000-3500K. The LED is usually 2700K (too yellow) or 6500K too white.
Eyeball/halogen is used for accent lighting NOT for ambient light. You will (usually) need ambient lighting in the livingroom. Using only eyeball/halogen will cause your living room to have patchy/uneven lighting. It will be very tiring to be in that space for extended periods of time.
Use ambient lighting for your general lights and eyeball/halogen for accent lighting.
