German term or phrase: Indirektrinnenleuchten
Eine Kunstlichtbeleuchtung für die Fassade einer Messehalle: "Die Kunstlichtbeleuchtung wird über im Fassadenbereich angebrachte Indirektrinnenleuchten erzielt." Ich habe überhaupt keine Ahnung, wie die Leuchte aussieht. Kann jemand helfen? Vielen Dank

English translation:indirect lighting built into a recess of the facade
Explanation:
Wenn da kein Tippfehler vorliegt, dann wird die Außenbeleuchtung einer Halle beschrieben, die in einer Rinne liegt, weil man natürlich nicht alle Kabel sehen will Solange diese Rinne nicht näher beschrieben wird, kann man wahrscheinlich nicht genau sagen, was das ist. Ein paar Ideen sind aber unten, auch valance lighting, das wäre dann irgendwie in den Fensterrahmen versteckt.

Architectural Lighting:
Lighting fixtures that are incorporated into the building facade, such as accent lighting, downlighting, valance lighting, luminous ceilings, or track or fluorescent lighting that is built into a recess or projection of the façade.

Tippfehler?


Explanation:
Könnte das ein Tippfehler sein und eigentlich Indirektinnenleuchten heissen müssen? Also eine indirekte Innenbeleuchtung?
Vielleicht kannst du dir dann eher vorstellen, wie sowas aussieht.

Never mind, Irene. I thought exactly along the same lines, but then I discovered that these lights are on the outside. Appreciate your help. Thanks a lot

neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: nice thinking, but it's for the facade, and a facade wouldn't have Innenbeleuchtung

  -> Oops, you're right! Just never heard of a "Rinnenbeleuchtung" in German so I immediately thought of a typo. Sorry, my mistake.

agree  muttersprachler: Die Rinne verbirgt nicht nur die Kabel, sondern verhindert von allem den direkten Blick in die Lichtquelle. Indirekte Beleuchtung eben.
