Disclosed is a lighting fixture with a shroud that can be removed and repositioned on the housing of the lighting fixture. The shroud may have a first end with a first shape and a second end with a second shape that is different than the first shape. The user may reorient the shroud to face one of the two ends away from and at different elevations relative to the lens to provide different shapes to the light emitted from the fixture.

A light color emission changing system for changing the color of a white light emitting light source to a selected color includes a light fixture having a base and a socket. The base is mounted on a support and a light emitter is connected with the socket to emit light having a white hue when turned on. A covering is removably positionable over the light fixture such that only one color of light is emitted through the covering.

A system and method are disclosed for a lamp that includes a unit having a slit. The slit receives various inserts that allow the lamp to adapt in appearance for changing the décor of a room and/or provide information to a user in proximity to the lamp.

A lamp shade or cover that can be readily switched from a translucent-opaque mode to a transparent mode if the shade or cover from a material with transparency properties that can be modulated. A layer of liquid crystals encapsulated between transparent electrodes is included in the shade. Normally, the liquid crystals are randomly oriented and diffuse light so as to create a translucent state. When a direct current voltage is applied across the transparent electrodes, the liquid crystals become oriented and essentially transparent. Application of a pulsed or alternating current voltage can be used to modulate the degree of transparency.
