Abstract
A lighting fixture having an integrally formed reflector for distributing a substantially square pattern of light and a light source extending along the reflector axis between first and second ends. The reflector has a side wall which includes four similarly shaped quadrants, each quadrant having four distinctly shaped sub-quadrants. Each of the four similarly shaped quadrants has a first sub-quadrant for distributing light from the light source toward a corner portion of the substantially square pattern of light, a second sub-quadrant for distributing light from the light source toward a side portion of the substantially square pattern of light, and third and fourth sub-quadrants for distributing light from the light source toward interior portions of the substantially square pattern of light.
