Abstract
A light fixture and method for producing downward-propagating illumination that includes an edge-lit lightguide illuminated from its perimeter. The lightguide has a light extractor, such as a dot pattern on its bottom surface, which extracts a portion of the light from inside the lightguide and directs it to a diffuser. The fixture also includes a downlight, arranged above the lightguide and producing a downlight beam downward. The downlight beam transmits from the top face through the bottom face of the lightguide and emerges from the bottom face of the lightguide as a directional beam. The downlight beam has a downlight beam footprint. The light extractor has a light extractor area that excludes the downlight beam footprint, and the diffuser has a diffuser area that also excludes the downlight beam footprint.
