Abstract
Indoor lighting fixture providing indirect asymmetrical light distribution. The fixture, which is adapted to be positioned adjacent a wall and below a ceiling, comprises a high intensity gaseous discharge lamp and an upwardly opening asymmetric reflector which is inclined to the horizontal for projecting light forwardly and laterally toward the ceiling while restricting light below the horizontal, so as to provide ample, uniformly distributed indirect light in the work area while shielding the light source from direct view of the room occupants to avoid glare.
