Title: Area lighting luminaire

Abstract: An area lighting luminaire employs a light source such as a mercury lamp and a reflector therefor positioned in a housing of generally rectangular shape which supports a refractor of ovoidal bowl shape in depending relation to the housing and provides a luminous intercepting zone configuration in the bottom of the housing around the refractor. Reflected light from the luminous intercepting zone of the luminaire softens the overall intensity of the light source and improves the effectiveness and appearance of the luminaire.
