Umbra Ltd. was founded in 1979 in Toronto by Paul Rowan and Les Mandelbaum. Over the year it has become a globally recognised leader in contemporary home design. The company was born when Rowan, who was unable to find an attractive window shade, designed his own. Umbra’s wide range of products now includes innovative wall décor, furniture, and household accessories that blend modern style with practicality.

Sold in over 120 countries, Umbra’s designs feature clean lines and a minimalist aesthetic. Umbra’s design processes focus on originality, functionality, and sustainability. Collaborating with designers worldwide, Umbra creates items that can transform everyday objects into statement pieces. The products are widely available both online and in brick-and-mortar stores.
