Create a sculptural lighting installation with the Tense Multi-Canopy System — a minimal ceiling fixture designed to support three or five Tense pendant lamps in your choice of sizes. Whether you prefer a uniform look or a mix of shades, this modular setup lets you tailor the composition to suit your space.

This product includes a multi-port canopy and the necessary light drivers. Shades are selected separately, giving you full flexibility to design a cloud-like cluster or a streamlined linear configuration.

Each Tense shade, designed by Panter & Tourron for New Works Denmark, is crafted from Tyvek — a paper-like, 100% recyclable material that’s both incredibly lightweight and durable. Held in tension by carbon rods, the shade forms a soft, airy silhouette that appears to float in the room. The integrated LED offers balanced, dimmable light directed both upward and downward for an ambient glow.

Wrinkles in the Tyvek are natural and part of the aesthetic. Over time, they soften with gravity and tension. To help this process along, gently tighten the Velcro band inside the shade.

Installation Notes

Due to the lightweight material, Tense pendants may sway in response to airflow. This movement is part of the intended design and should be considered when choosing a location. Shades attach magnetically to the cord and may detach with strong movement or drafts — install in a space free of excessive air circulation.

Indoor use only. Not suitable for outdoor environments or modification.

Replacing the LED

To replace the light:

Disconnect the magnetic mount.
Open the side of the shade.
Carefully remove and replace the LED unit.
Reattach the magnets to secure.
