Delicate yet distinctly graphic, the Flat pendant reflects the signature precision of Ichiro Iwasaki, known for his essential and abstract style. Disc-shaped diffusers are suspended at different heights from ultra-slim cables, light reflecting off their surfaces to create layers of soft, intimate illumination.

The smaller discs capture and cast light back at the larger, its calm, weightless presence appearing to glow from within. Defined by a sense of precision and visual lightness, the carefully considered materiality of the shade, diffuser, cable, and canopy form a coherent and harmonious whole.

The upper surface of each disc is available in a palette of natural tones—Off-White, Terra Red, and Green L1—chosen to complement a wide range of interiors. These muted finishes reinforce the visual harmony of the pendant, maintaining a balance between material, form and light.

Integrated into the Composing Pendants system, Flat breaks free from architectural constraints. A single luminaire can flow effortlessly through space, or multiple elements can be suspended from the same connection point, giving designers the freedom to explore creative and complex configurations.

The collection’s formal simplicity translates into a sculptural presence, its overlapping planes bringing depth and visual texture to a space. A range of discreet installation options—remote, recessed, surface-mounted, or free wire—preserve its refined presence, each composition integrating seamlessly into the space.

Endlessly versatile, Flat is available in both small and medium sizes. Its sleek profile elevates residential settings, such as living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms with its graceful simplicity. An adjustable, triple-disc, commercial-size pendant is also available for larger-scale projects, providing contract environments with a unique focal point.

Composing with Flat is an exploration of light and geometry. Floating discs are suspended in harmonious layers, bringing a sense of lightness and serenity to a space. Enhanced by the modular freedom of Vibia’s Composing Pendants system, the collection evolves into an intuitive, fluid composition. The precision of each silhouette, paired with its soft illumination, creates a balanced and refined atmosphere that feels both contemporary and timeless.
