Abstract: An ornamental support pole for a luminaire is disclosed wherein the support pole is fluted to define longitudinally extending and spaced-apart flutes having radiused surfaces therebetween. The flutes are painted or coated so as to exhibit a color different than that of the radiused surfaces therebetween. The method of creating the pole structure is also described.

Abstract: A recessed downlight for installation between joists located in a ceiling, comprising a socket box assembly and a hanger bar assembly that both adjust to the size of the space between the joists and various obstacles therein. The socket box assembly includes a housing having a socket enclosed therein providing an electrical connection for a lamp. The socket box housing is slidably coupled to the hanger bar assembly, thereby allowing the housing to be moved to a desired location along the length of the hanger bar assembly. Hanger bar assembly includes telescoping hanger bars and adjustable vertical legs. In addition, the vertical legs rotate with respect to the hanger bars, thereby allowing the installer to mount the downlight diagonally between joists. A trim and a can for the downlight are releasably attached to the socket box assembly without the use of tools, thereby allowing the installer to easily remove and/or replace the trim or can.
