How do you run the wires if there isn't an attic space? Like if you are between floors?

Hey, What colour temperature lighting is on 0:22.

[cjluna]

Please do not attempt this without electrical knowledge. I see it all the time. First I demo what you did, then fix electrical you tapped into finally I start the job. You will end up paying triple instead of hiring a qualified electrician at the beginning. Like if you are a electrician
