According to some implementations a floor is provided that comprises a substrate having a top surface and a groove formed therein. The groove has an open end located at the top surface of the substrate. The groove further includes a bottom wall and side walls with the bottom wall located a first distance below the top surface of the substrate. The groove extends along a length of the substrate. A light diffusing optical fiber or other lighting means is supported inside the groove by a transparent or translucent fiber support that spaces the light diffusing optical fiber or other lighting means a distance away from the bottom wall, side walls and open end of the groove. According to some implementations the walls of the groove or the outer surfaces of the fiber support are provided with light reflectors to enhance the propagation of light toward the open end of the groove.
