during the occasion of ICFF in new york, toronto-based company umbra presents the inaugural collection by umbra shift. focusing on contemporary influences in the design community, the series features new work by lukas peet, paul loebach, MSDS, fugitive glue, hlynur atlason, philippe malouin, harry allen, albert lee and pieces from umbra’s in-house studio. ‘the result is a collection that expresses diverse points of view,’ explains tom chung, umbra shift director, ‘yet sits together with a shared belief in ideas that are functional, familiar and forward thinking.’ the catalog of products introduces the intersection between hand-craft with new materials, providing a range of objects that each designer would want to give or use at home.
