Abstract
Provided is a kit for assembling a luminaire comprising a bendable reflective canopy and a plurality of frame sections which define a frame and a light exit window of the luminaire. The frame sections include a pair of opposing side sections with an engagement member and side sections. The reflective canopy comprises a pair of opposing edge portions, each edge portion engaging with one of the engagement members when assembling the luminaire. The opposing side sections are spaced by the further side sections such that the reflective canopy is bent when the edge portions are engaged with the engagement members so as to cause the reflective canopy to arch over the light exit window. Solid state lighting elements are mounted on one of the side sections such that at least a part of the light emitted is redirected by the arched reflective canopy towards the light exit window.
