First, what do you need light for? Do you do paperwork? Is your desk in your window? You'll be getting afternoon sun. I'm recommending LED lighting to people, but Fred says it has a way to go in brightness and affordability. I recommend sky tubes to homeowners. I've had 2 in one of my houses.

Hi Guys We supply and Install LED downlights, do complete wiring on the plan, based on the detail information which you have provide we can design the downlights, LED Pendants, Fans, Switches, Wall lamps, LED bathroom Heaters, Outside Wall lamps, Kitchen lights and even the Smart LED Desk Lamp. 2.7 meter Ceiling : 1) I will recommend 10W LED downlights to go with. 2) Lumens between 800lm - 950lm 3) Bean angle should be 120° 4) We can recommend the color (Warm white/ Day white / Cool white) based on the color and decor of the house and also on what it is used for (eg:- for Dinning area Warm white is the best as it enhances the texture of the food) 5) The cover you can get in Stain or brushed chrome finish as you like. let me know if you need any more help Regards Arun

Pottsy99 - here’s the pic I wanted to share. My original Reno floorplan - minimum disturbance of existing asbestos cladding inside & out - but extending footprint requires council approval so I reworked it into the floorplan I posted here I the first place. Thanks for your suggestions. That kind of thing is down the track at some point!

At a quick look , that product you have there is designed for the cables to the printer , etc . A laptop plug will poke through from underneath , but things like the 'jug cord' that powers your monitors wont by the looks of it , so you'll end up powering them from the 'top of desk' multiboards . A bit messy , so basically you haven't achieved much . You can get plastic or metal grommets ( 60mm or so in diameter ) that are probably as good . As Kate says , get things that group cords together ( cable ties or those snake looking bits of plastic are good ) . Some other advice -- depending on what you are doing , and even if 2 or 3 are working on the same topics or totally independent : -- have 2 computers per person , but 1 larger ( 32 inch ) monitor per person , and have them hot-swappable ( normally a key on your keyboard switches between computers ) . I know a lot of people go the other way , and have 2 monitors and swap Windows , but I like 2 seperate computers especially if working on 2 projects . -- hardwire printers rather that WiFi or Bluetooth -- mind you , that depends how many computers and projects you are using , also whether you have 1 computer set up as a server . -- If 2 or more people are working on the same project , and you have the wall space , have a 42 or 50 inch TV on the wall , with HDMI , as a potential monitor . TV's aaren't as good picture quality as computer monitors , but I find they are handy for getting projects up for several people to look at , or failing that , playing You Tube videos or Netflix or music videos or whatever , even if the sound is turned down .
