Lights option 2 -- overhead
I bought some new old stock E-Z-Lectric light fixtures from Itsy Bitsy Old Stuff on etsy. They had four packages of two lights and one package of two spare bulbs. They all worked.
These are great since they already look a bit aged; a few of the bulbs show crackling in the frosted glass finish. I figured 4 to 6 inside the building, then save the extras for replacement bulbs. There are similar fixtures on the market today, but they have black backings. I liked the older look of these brown backings. You could paint the more modern ones as well.
Exposed conduit would be nice, but I'm thinking channel molding would be the easiest way to go here. I can always add fake conduit. At first I thought about putting them on the wall, but with the offset window it might be an odd layout.
I think putting straight cross beams overhead and using 4 lights will work well, but I'll tape them in place during the next dry fit to see how the lighting looks inside.
