this is probably one of the coolest builds ive seen in a while, but I just have to ask. How much has your electric bill gone up? lol
I like the shape of the lamp...The connection to the ISD is obvious but you can down play it a bit if you needed to.
What about using lights similar to those in the Falcon? You could use these? They're cheap...

... I have been looking at Sonotube and considering the possibilities. That's the round tubes they use to form concrete columns. I could cut one of those lengthways, place it horizontally and light it inside
Shipcepction...:rolleyes
Your den is epic DJ! I'm probably the only one on this forum who's never seen a full Star Wars movie(blasphemy!:darnkids) but your craftsmanship and imagination are awesome.
I find you lack of Star Wars...disturbing.
Amazing DJ, this room is turning out great! I like your "Bay" light design a lot, but echo those who say that it seems a bit out of place with the rest of the room's design.
Not that I have any better ideas mind you, I've never seen the ceilings either. lol
How about this ceiling from Ralph McQuarrie's concept? I have an open area, it's already painted flat black. I could hang some beams and Sonotube cylinders. Those would be lit within. I also have a 4 x 6 white panel I could use as a light diffuser. Hmmm.

I wouldn't build it EXACTLY like that, but I would catch the major shapes and the spirit of it. You know, a complicated barrage of "things" that represent mechanical utility. It would be unlike anything people normally have in a house, that's for sure. It's more like a factory ceiling, like in a mechanical room.
