Laylights? Never heard of them. Lay-in lights maybe? Like 2x4 fluorescents designed to drop into an t-bar acoustical ceiling grid?

laylight = a glass window that diffuses light from above (i think that the light source is usually artificial, otherwise, sounds like a skylight)

Really? That was easy.

Seriously, if you are going to use Kalwall in your design, please please please do something innovative and doesn't look like it was built in the 80's.

Please.

I found it. for those who dont know, this is what it is

a laylight is any diffuser of light under a skylight (to soften the incoming light). Because it is a different, interior, structure than the skylight, sometimes light bulbs are built into it (in the day, the skylight brings light in; at night, the bulbs take over).
