The Tense Tyvek Disc Ceiling Light is a thin disc of DuPont Tyvek® material shade stretched over a Fiberglass frame, wired directly into a standard ceiling junction box. It sits so close to the ceiling it barely registers as a fixture. What you notice instead is the light: smooth, even, and calm across the entire surface.
A room with a Tense overhead feels different. The ceiling reads higher. The light spreads wide without a single hot spot or hard shadow. It works the way good design works: you feel the effect before you see the source.
Available in three single sizes and two multi-disc cluster configurations, so the same lamp scales from a compact bedside fixture to a full ceiling installation over a 10-foot dining table.

Ultra-thin disc. Reads as light, not as a lamp.
As little as 4.7 inches tall. Sits flush to the ceiling and disappears into the room.
Why Tense
📄
DuPont Tyvek® material shade
The same material used in architectural building wraps. Tear-resistant, lightweight, and translucent enough to diffuse light evenly across the full disc.
💡
Even LED Diffusion
The integrated LED distributes output uniformly through the Tyvek surface. No hot center, no edge shadow, just smooth consistent light.
📐
Sloped Ceiling Ready
Compatible with angled ceilings up to 30 degrees. The mounting hardware keeps the disc level regardless of ceiling pitch.

⚠️
Not dimmable. The built-in LED does not support dimmer switches. Do not pair with a dimmer, as it may cause flickering or damage the fixture.
✉️
Shipping creases are normal. The Tyvek shade may arrive with slight fold lines from packaging. These fade naturally once the lamp is installed and the material relaxes with warmth from the LED.
