Umbra
Umbra was born 31 years ago when a graphic designer by the name of Paul Rowan couldn’t find a nice window shade to hang in his new apartment window. So, he made one. And others liked it! He soon teamed up with friend Les Mandelbaum…and Umbra was born.
It was from this first product that Umbra got its name – 'umbra' means 'shade' in Latin. Since that time, Umbra has grown to become the world leader of innovative, modern, casual and affordable design for the home.
Over the past 31 years, Umbra has introduced products that have broken the mold and has created entirely new categories in the homewares market.
Many products have won international awards while some have received the acclaim of international celebrities like Oprah Winfrey!
