There's a fixed number of such things that we get "for free" per room. They just need to be marked on a plan and given to Marco.

I presume the position of the light fittings on the ceiling will be included in this too.

What's the for free limit? This seems like something easiest to just talk through when I'm there... We need to find places that sell light fixtures too!

gavin-norman-sociomantic commented 9 years ago

Hm, not sure whether the actual fixtures need to be decided by June 25th. I didn't get that impression...

crystal-lotus commented 9 years ago

Even if the specific fixtures are selected, we still need to know what type is going where so the get the proper wiring in place...

here's some track fixtures by the german company bruck that i am considering spec-ing for various locations in the flat, let me know what you think! trying to find a showroom where i could go look at the fixtures?

am trying to figure out where the track gets wired up, i think at one end or the other. the track is sold @ 4, 8 & 12 ft. lengths and can also be cut to length.

You don't think it's safe to assume it can be wired up in the middle, like the ones in the showroom?

gavin-norman-sociomantic commented 9 years ago

By the way, "Lichthaus" seems to be the phrase for such shops.

crystal-lotus commented 9 years ago

from the cut sheet it seems that it is wired at the end, not all track systems are the same... these would be mounted directly to the ceiling for a cleaner profile, not suspended like those in the showroom. see "Eco power feeds"

crystal-lotus commented 9 years ago

gavin-norman-sociomantic commented 9 years ago
