I was walking past a swanky new condo development, peering into the lobby living room area, I saw this unusual looking lamp.
It occurred to me that this type of lamp would be great for color mixing and light diffusion, optimal for a design that could incorporate separate red LED emitters for more fuller spectrum coverage and higher efficiency.
another thread on that: Red emitter enhanced White LED light (in Non-Flashlight LED Forum, 20 Sept 2024 )
The design seems to have an LED that shines facing backwards into a big parabolic dish, to reflect the light forward in a very spread-out and diffuse way. The color of the lamp I saw was white on the inside and black on the outside. The dish seemed about 26 inches in diameter (66 cm), if I had to guess. The light had a very "warm" rich feel to it. It was probably 2700K at 93 CRI, if I had to guess.
It looked something like these lamps:

It seems to have a very contemporary modern design, kind of bizarre. And yet very functional, for diffusing light, although the light is very directional.
The two dishes were positioned in such a way, with some couches, that they almost seemed to have the effect of a fireplace with a warm glowing fire.
Here's a parabolic dish lamp that hangs from the ceiling:
