to reply to a pm-> we didnt engage an ID. we thought of what we wanted (which is the design and layout) and discuss the feasibility with contractor. for measurements, of course must run by contractor's advice.

so yah, no 3d design to post.

Happy Good Friday to all!

cove and down lighting in the mbr. for living room we are using track lights.

below comments are my own opinion:

one thing i want to point out after i installed LED downlights is i really hate them. even if LED can save more money or can be brighter than t5, just put a book with small words under both lights and see the difference.

To me (again, it might be different for u), the words under LED lights appear 'ghostly' and 'blur' wherelse the words under t5 lights appear 'solid'.

Its the same situation for LCD/LED vs Plasma. I hate the lag in lcd and led. Go to Best or Harvey Norman and watch a fast trailer. Then look closely at a person's neck and see if you see 2 necks or a widen neck. Go to the plasma section and see another neck ( using neck as point of reference). The lag is not so obvious.

cant paint. u need to sand it first. or u use plastic spray. i used paint because i wanted to see if painting would be faster.
