METHODS OF FORMING DIRECT AND DECORATIVE ILLUMINATION
In various embodiments, direct illumination is provided from a primary light emitter and decorative illumination is provided from a secondary light emitter illuminating a shade.
1 .- 16 . (canceled)
17 . A method of illumination from a light source comprising a primary light emitter, a secondary light emitter different from the primary light emitter, and a shade, the method comprising:
providing direct illumination from the primary light emitter by transmitting light emitted by the primary light emitter through a first portion of the shade substantially without modification of the light emitted by the primary light emitter;
illuminating a second portion of the shade, different from the first portion, with light from the secondary light emitter;
modifying the light illuminating the second portion of the shade; and
transmitting the modified light through the second portion of the shade, thereby forming at least a portion of decorative illumination emitted in a direction different from a direction of the direct illumination.
18 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the shade is disposed around and spaced apart from the secondary light emitter.
19 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the shade is disposed around and spaced apart from the primary light emitter.
20 . The method of claim 17 , wherein modifying the light illuminating the second portion of the shade comprises at least one of blocking a portion of the light from the secondary light emitter, reflecting a portion of the light from the secondary light emitter, or diffracting a portion of the light from the secondary light emitter.
21 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the first portion of the shade is substantially transparent.
22 . The method of claim 17 , wherein providing direct illumination comprises emitting at least a portion of light from the primary light emitter through an opening in the shade.
23 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the primary light emitter comprises at least one light-emitting diode.
24 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the secondary light emitter comprises at least one light-emitting diode.
25 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the direct illumination is distinct from the decorative illumination in terms of at least one of intensity or color.
26 . The method of claim 17 , wherein a shape of the shade corresponds to at least a portion of a shape of an incandescent or halogen light bulb the light source is designed to replace.
