Contemporary track lighting
It has been demonstrated that better illumination and pastel colors on your walls improves performance over 50% either on your job or on your studies, especially if you use white halogen lights that imitate the sun instead of the wordly known yellow type.Contemporary track lighting for commercial use was introduced in the sixties, along with the huge new tendencies in fashion, art, architecture and design. By 1968, thousands of flexible track lights had been installed in art galleries, museums, stores and avant-garde-themed homes.
Flexible track lights are easy to install, cheaper than most elaborated lamp models, and uses relatively low voltage compared to the average classic Edison bulb that numbs you with that yellow, reddish light.

How you choose to light each room of your house can go a long way toward creating enjoyable and functional living spaces. In addition to simply making things a good deal brighter, well-designed lighting plays an important role in composing a comfortable atmosphere. However, solving your lighting problems doesn't just mean shedding more light on the subject. In many cases, rearranging the placement and intensity of the light sources provides a new look and increases functionality.
While there are many lighting alternatives, one solution is track lighting. With this system, individual lamps, or lighting heads, fit into tracks secured to your ceiling. Because you install the tracks to suit your space, you end up with a custom configuration that's tailored to your needs. And once in place, the lamps can be repositioned along the tracks to vary the lighting effect or to accommodate new requirements. Best of all, because the power comes from an existing ceiling junction box, track lighting can usually be installed without any remodeling... - Install Track Lighting | DoItYourself.com

Installing track lights doesn't have to be an intimidating venture, and you sure don't need to spend a fortune on an electrician to install them. This tutorial will detail everything you need to know to install your very own set of track lights.
In this tutorial, we're going to be replacing an existing ceiling fixture with a single length track light system. For new installations where there are no wires present, you will need to run a new circuit to the track light location, and that may prove to be a bigger job than the average do-it-yourselfer can handle and should be done by a licensed electrician...
