    Yep, it's concrete. Is that bad news?:(

    Is there a room with central heating directly underneath?

    Without knowing the layout and construction of your house, and the position of the existing pipework it's difficult to know what to suggest except list the basic options (under floor from above, under floor from below by removing part of the ceiling, through the loft, through the walls or surface mounted on the walls).

    You could run the plumbing in using microbore piping to reduce the size and hide it behind some trunking, perhaps something a bit lower profile like D-Line:

    Could you make a feature of the pipes - run them in chrome pipe to a chrome radiator? Obvious but not necessarily ugly?
