QUOTE(lotiman2003 @ Nov 25 2013, 10:39 PM) Is it a must for you to put plaster ceiling? The thing I mentioned previous about the concealed light design (L shape side plastering or what ever it called) can be an alternative too. Actually not really but due to some cross RC beams cutting thru directly at the center, it will be difficult to install the fan strategically as well. Even if I do a L shape box, you will see 4 separate small recess boxes. That's why it is a real headache.

What we ended up doing was using Light box (or some ppl call L-box) to create a square depression area in the plaster ceiling design. For the area where the L-box is being used, original ceiling height was maintained and fan is mounted directly to the concrete slab above.
if you see the attachment you will understand. That's why I having a headache... Attached File(s)

Go for Panasonic FM14E2, meant for low ceiling.( RM 375 ) BTW, i have done some research, most of the fan stem from ceiling to blade is 425mm ( 17"). I actually measured quite numbers of fan belongs to friends and family as well as my current home.

Hhhhhmmm.... was going to say go for strips lighting as in the pic below but it wouldn't really work because your fan will need the space. How does your ceiling line up to your living area? Like in the pic i posted earlier, the ceiling doesn't really align with the living area either due to ceiling beams as well. Had to improvise a little. The finished ceiling is aligned from the front all the way to the kitchen but it doesn't align with the main door and neither does the ceiling fan sit directly over the living area either. Not totally ideal but had to work within the limitations. End result was ok lar... living area can still feel the air from the fan but not as strong as if it was directly overhead. Hope that helps spark an idea maybe.
