Abstract
In an aspect, a lighting system (1) comprises a lighting unit (11) with a light source (31) and a dichroic light exiting surface (15), wherein the lighting unit (11) is configured for emitting dichroic light from the dichroic light exiting surface (15). The emitted dichroic light includes a directional light portion (37) of direct light (17) and a diffused light portion (39) of diffused light (19) with a another larger correlated color temperature. The lighting system further comprises an appearance affecting optical system (13) with a plurality of structural elements (40, 91, 93, 101, 105) that comprise surfaces that delimit a plurality of diffused light passages (14, 103, 107), and comprise direct light illuminated surface regions (25), which are subject to the illumination with direct light (17) from respectively associated affected direct light providing areas (81) of the dichroic light exiting surface (15). Moreover, the affected direct light providing areas (81) cover at least 70% of the dichroic light exiting surface (15), and the direct light (17) from at least one affected direct light providing area (81) and diffused light (19) propagate within at least one of the diffused light passages (14, 103, 107).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
