Abstract

A light reflector assembly for providing selective direct and indirect lighting includes a first section reflecting light from a first light source in a first direction and a second section reflecting light from a second light source in a second direction. The first section and the second section are connected by a central section or by end caps. The first section substantially surrounds a first light source to provide direct lighting for the user, and the second section substantially surrounds a second light source to provide indirect lighting for the user, either at the same time or independently, as desired by the user. The position of the first and second section may be adjusted to control the light dispersed by the light sources as desired by the user, and may further include secondary reflectors or diffusers for adjustment of the light.
