  • OneSpace combines a number of unique features in an impressive ultra-thin and lightweight panel. Made-to-measure, this architectural ceiling solution has a homogeneous light distribution, acoustic properties, adheres to the highest fire safety requirement and is easy to integrate in a variety of spaces. Although the panels are large in size, they do no prohibit access to the plenum allowing for other utility system maintenance. The result is a clutter-free ceiling with an amazing light effect.

  • OneSpace integrates LED lights with textile to create a white light ceiling surface that hides the source of light completely. It delivers excellent uniform light distribution for an enhanced daylight experience, which makes it a great functional light to work and be under. The result is a smooth and clutter-free ceiling of beautiful homogeneous light that feels as good as it looks - due to it's uniformity, color consistency, brightness and being glare-free.

  • OneSpace not only makes spaces look great, it enhances your experience of them. It delivers bright uniform glare-free LED light that eliminates shadows completely so you can see more clearly and view objects in their true light. It even enhances room acoustics by reducing disturbing sound reflections. People experiencing the new concept are amazed. They feel safe and comfortable. “It's like I'm surrounded by light.”, “It is really serene and peaceful.”, “I don't see the light, I feel the light. It is just light”, “A clean ceiling is clean mind.” We think people say this because the design of OneSpace is really design at its most essential, so unobtrusive that the only thing you notice in a room is the light.

  • OneSpace opens up new minimalistic lighting design opportunities. It is literally a customizable building block for transforming any ceiling into a seamless cohesive space. For ultimate design flexibility, the ultra-thin (12 cm) panel is available in made-to-measure sizes (up to 10 m x 3 m), and can be mounted in multiple ways (free-hanging, ceiling-mounted or recessed). There is also the option to choose the panel's edge color.

    OneSpace exceeds industry safety standards for both fire and mounting. The ceiling panel is composed of incombustible glass fiber and aluminium, and carries an industry-leading A2 fire-class safety rating. The mounting system also has a safety factor of over five times higher than the weight of the panel.
