Direct/indirect task lighting

摘要

A direct/indirect task light for use in connection with office work stations has an elongated light source, preferably a fluorescent bulb as the source. The light source has a housing that is imperforate, but has an opening directed toward an overlying canopy that forms a reflector for the light. The canopy has perforations or apertures therethrough so that light will pass through the perforations to the exterior to provide ambient lighting. Light striking the canopy surface between apertures will be reflected from the lower surface of the canopy onto an office work surface.
