Lighting

Sadly, in the nook where I’ve got my gaming table I’ve got no ceiling fixtures, indeed in the entire huge ass room (20×25′ish) I call my computer room there’s one ceiling fixture and it’s off to the side in a really WWTT location.

So I’m looking at track lighting that I’d like to put up there, I hate overhead lights but I need something shining down from above on the table for lighting purposes and track lighting is different enough that perhaps I won’t hate it completely. I’d actually prefer cove lighting in order to bounce indirect light off the ceiling and downwards but then I’d have to cove the whole room and that’s expensive.

But… there’s no way to run wire to the location that doesn’t entail knocking holes in sheet rock and removing a large chunk of the ceiling because of the way the joists for the second floor run versus the points of access.

Now I’m looking at having to run that ugly wire conduit up the side of the wall and across the ceiling. Granted I could paint it to match the wall, crown and ceiling to help it blend it a bit but it’s still ugly.

I need something really cheap (termite prevention and new guttering killed my disposable income for the year and then some) but attractive. Get your mind out of the gutter please.
