Abstract
A bidirectional lighting system includes a housing having a planar base and a stringer connected to end plates by a chassis. The chassis carries a bracket for light sockets and asymmetric reflectors. The edges of the base, the end plates and the stringer define a pair of windows. One light source and an associated asymmetric provide up light illumination through one of the windows and the other light source and its associated reflector provides wall wash illumination of an adjacent wall through the other window.
