The specification discloses a step tread luminaire including an optic and a light source directing light into the optic. The optic is a flexible elastomer adapted to be fitted into a hole in a step tread in grommet-like fashion with an upper portion of the optic on the top of the tread and a lower portion of the optic on the bottom of the tread. The optic emits upwardly directed, decorative light from the upper portion of the optic and downwardly directed, functional light from the lower portion of the optic.
