Abstract
Embodiments are generally directed to a sound-dampening light fixture. In one embodiment, the sound-dampening light fixture includes the following: a structural center portion that includes a housing for a light source, and at least one interconnecting ring that includes connection points for connecting panels to the interconnecting ring. The sound-dampening light fixture also includes panels arranged circumferentially around the structural center portion. The panels are connected to the interconnecting ring at the connection points. The panels are arranged at angles that are designed to dampen sound waves, and are constructed from material that further dampens sound waves coming into contact therewith.
