Abstract
A luminaire comprising a heat sink, a light source to emit a source light, a heat spreader having inner and outer surfaces, and LEDs carried by a circuit board and disposed generally along a periphery of the inner surface and positioned in thermal communication therewith. The luminaire comprises a reflector disposed coextensively with the LEDs and comprising an aperture. An outer edge of the aperture defines an inner rim of the reflector. A light guide positioned between the reflector and the light source exhibits a height defined as the distance between the inner surface of the heat spreader and a plane defined by the inner rim of the reflector. The light guide comprises deformations and/or lens portions configured to change the source light into a shaped light that is directed through the aperture. The deformations are characterized by a common shape positioned about a center of the light guide.
