### Materials of Decoration #### Lighting * **Wall Lights:** A wall mounted light fixture that diffuses light into a room. * **Sconce:** A decorative wall bracket for candles or other lights. * **Wall Washers:** Used to bathe a wall in an even stream of light. These lights are wholly directional, using a reflector or a baffle to distribute the light at a certain angle. * **Ceiling Lights:** Ceiling-mounted lighting that is not recessed. Provides general lighting. * **Downlights:** Provides directional light in a downward stream. A downlight is normally recessed or semi-recessed into the ceiling. * **Troffer Lights:** A rectangular light fixture that fits into a modular dropped ceiling grid. These have been typically designed to accommodate standard fluorescent lamps, but are now also designed with integral LED sources. * **Prismatic:** This type uses a prismatic lens that distributes light over a spectrum and distributes a concentrated light source over a larger surface area. The lenses take the glare off an otherwise bare bulb. * **Parabolic Louvered:** This is the solution for people complaining about the output and uneven distribution of light in a prismatic fixture. * **Uplights:** Sends light upwards. Freestanding uplights are important for accentuating interiors. * **Spotlights:** Ceiling, wall, or floor-mounted, or attached to a track. This is a flexible, adjustable luminaire that directs light in a controlled beam. * **Floor Lamps:** Light fixtures that are freestanding. * **Table Lamps:** A variety of decorative lights which give a soft glow. Very popular for both general and accent lighting. * **Desk Lamps:** Essential to provide task lighting. Gives a concentrated, directional light to a specific area. * **Strip Lighting:** A rigid flexible tape with exposed low-voltage light sources. It is generally a fluorescent fixture but some type can be tungsten or neon.
