As for downlighters, if you mean halogens I'd recommend doing the cost
calculations first. With eg 6 downlighters you'll be replacing bulbs 6x
as often, and downlighting costs thousands in extra run cost over its
life. It also heats up the place in summer... it really is a classic
example of style over function. And environmentally it wont mark you
out as smart or caring. And they have other problems, but I wont bore
us all.
Cutting holes in the ceiling reduces its fire protection for one.
