What type of light fitting is there already? there are lot's of DIY plug in options on the market which you could add to an existing light fitting if it's a bayonet or cable fitting?
Without seeing the design and construction , one possible idea that I have done in commercial buildings , is to get some plywood , say 800 x 1200 , cut 4 or 6 or whatever holes in it , insert LED downlights , take them back out and stain it or even paint ( charcoal is a logical one , but you could go as wild and crazy as you want -- bright red mightn't suit everywhere , but will suit some decors ; same with peppermint green or metallic blue or silver or yellow .
You can hang on stranded wires anything from 10cm to 100cm or more from the concrete ceiling , makes a fake ceiling . I have even done several over a larger area , all at different heights and different colours and tones , and it adds even more interest .
Maybe $200 a 'drop' , and it even hides the worst of the wiring , quick and easy and even slightly trendy , and probably even fits the Aussie inspired theme !
