Hello everyone, we originally planned only one ceiling connection in the dining room, but now we want to install two ceiling lights there. The idea is to have the lights hang over the dining table, one over each half. We are looking for a way to achieve an elegant and stylish cable management. A standard plastic cable conduit is only an emergency solution. The ceiling lights have already been chosen. They will be the Ikea Hektar. Best regards, Alex

Choose a metal that matches the lamp and make a U-shaped bracket to attach it to the ceiling. It's a bit inconvenient that the lamps have round, rather than square, mounting points, which would make it easier. But completely hiding it probably won't be that simple.

Chase the wall, insert the cables, and then replaster.

Lower the ceiling. This also allows for the installation of several recessed lights. If using a shadow gap, LED strips can be added as well.

It is also possible to lower the ceiling only in certain areas. This looks stylish too, especially when combined with LED strips.
