Lights can be only point lights until now.
You'll have to build the corner sink from a basic sink that you'll surround with triangle and boxes, or probably better with an other program like AOI or Blender.

Re: How to make a roof light and a corner sink?

Alternative suggestions:
1.You can add multiple lights in an array to simulate the roof-light.
2.You can use poseray ( http://mysite.verizon.net/sfg0000/ ), import OBJ files.Then convert your light to "array" and use povray renderer (povray.org) to render.
3. Import OBJ in Kerkythea (www.kerkythea.net), replace lights/materials as needed, render.

Hope this helps (at least a little bit ;) )
