In brief, a lighting fixture is provided. The lighting fixture has both a transmitted and reflected light component employing a polymeric material which has an appearance, in varying degrees, of white. The material has internal elements which can be varied to be either highly reflective or permit efficient diffuse transmission of incident light rays. The ratio of reflected to transmitted light and the degree of diffusion are tailored to the application, light source and desired appearance. The material is adapted for providing a selected diffuse transmission component of a total fixture output. The material provides a set diffuse transmission component of greater than 1% and less than 25% where the material is formed by pigmenting a transparent material with a white pigment. The material provides a set diffuse transmission component of greater than 1% and less than 99% where the material is formed by a foamed polymeric material, by an expanded bead material, by blending transparent materials having different refractive indices, or by adding a filler to a polymeric material.
