"Light Scallops
Light scallops can be an intentional or unintentional effect of a down-lighting plan. The last row of down-lights closest to the wall will cause light scallops, which if planned for can add visual interest to a space. The more diffuse the light source and trim are, the softer the scallop will be. For example a R/BR-lamp mounted in a flush-to-ceiling open trim, will barely create any scallop, while a R-lamp in a shallow white baffle will create a soft scallop, and a PAR lamp in a deep-black baffle trim will create a crisp scallop. You should be mindful of the horizontal location of the center of the scallops relative to architectural features such as cabinet frames, doorways, windows, etc."

le phénomène observé de festons est un défaut optique dû à la multiplicité des lentilles sur les optiques à focale variable, aussi appelés aberrations, le document ci-dessous fait référence au terme "scallops" en anglais, apparemment par analogie avec les festons en dentelle
