Umbra Photo Frames - Beautiful Memories Deserve a Beautiful Setting

Photographs evoke pleasant memories. Why are they so important? They allow us to define the meaning of our lives, to remind us of the values we should live by. They protect us from forgetting our loved ones and pleasant events...

Umbra frames will bring back memories!

That's why we often collect various objects – not just for the sake of collecting, but also for the memories associated with acquiring a particular exhibit. These bring us the most joy. They allow us to spin stories and strengthen bonds with other people. Photographs play a similar role. Beautifully framed, placed in glass display cases, cabinets, or on a wall, they not only make for a wonderful and original decoration, but also allow us to collect memories, share them with loved ones, and recall them whenever we feel the need.

The Umbra brand was founded in 1979 in Toronto, as a response to a very specific need – the lack of home accessories with a modern and elegant design, functional and versatile. Since then, the brand has been known for its original designs, created in cooperation with young designers.

The company's offer includes products such as:

• wall decorations,
• hangers,
• clocks,
• jewellery,
• albums,
• photo frames.

The first photo frames from this brand were created as early as the beginning of the 90s and quickly gained popularity – especially models that allowed more than one photograph to be placed in a single frame. Over the years, the idea has been refined right up to the present day. Made of glass and metal, they not only adorn the interior but also make the moments captured in photographs unique and one-of-a-kind.

Freestanding photo frame

A framed photo on your office desk is the perfect decoration!

Photos can be framed in many ways. They can hang on the wall or stand on a chest of drawers. A frame can display one photograph or many. The most popular, of course, are the classic ones we place on desks. They are most often used to display family portraits or photos from particularly important events. We can place them anywhere, move them around, rearrange them, take them to work, hide them, and take them out. This is a big advantage that allows us to freely control the summoning of memories.

Such unique photographs, which evoke so many feelings, need an exceptional setting. The combination of glass with metal is almost classic. A geometric white frame, constructed from triangular elements, will perfectly fit into a modern interior design and will catch the eye, showcasing our memories and happy moments. For more classic rooms, a wooden frame will work well. If you're torn about which photo is most important to you – we have good news. You can choose several! Thanks to Umbra, you can opt for a multi-photo frame.

When we want our photos to hang on the wall, so we can recall pleasant memories at any time, we can choose ordinary, single frames, which are plentiful in every shop. However, it's worth considering a more beautiful setting. The Luna photo frame takes its name from the moon, which is its inspiration. It will create a colourful mosaic on the wall from the most interesting family photographs and will itself become an adornment for your interior.

Lovers of Scandinavian style will certainly appreciate an equally beautiful frame made of raw wood, showcasing not only photos but also nature and simplicity. It seemingly creates an impression of a chaotic combination of individual frames, and thus catches the eye. After a moment, however, we begin to perceive harmony and beauty in it. Edge photo frames are ideal for displaying the most beautiful family memories.

We can also place photos on hanging 3D frames, not just in classic frames. This solution is ideal if we want to enjoy holiday memories or an important family event for a longer period.

A great advantage of this form of displaying photos is the mobility of this accessory and the ability to easily swap one photo for another. Most often, you don't even need to remove the glass. This solution is found in the Crowd model, which will look excellent on a desk in a modernist interior, or Fotofalls in industrial and modern rooms. With little effort, we can replace photographs with new ones, move the old ones to an album, or choose one exceptional one to hang on the wall.

We often wonder whether children also appreciate the value of photos and the memories associated with them. Of course, they do – although for them, entirely different photographs may hold meaning. The youngest won't appreciate glass figurines that are meant to stand rigidly on a desk and cannot be touched.

Framing photos can be an interesting pastime for children

Simple and functional solutions will be better, allowing children to swap photos constantly, detach them, change the order, or even discard them. Let's allow them to touch them! Additionally, they shouldn't take up much space in the room and fulfil only one role. Such photo frames for children must have slightly different functionality. Especially for such uses, the Umbra brand has created other types of frames, such as wall-mounted lines to which almost any number of photographs and more can be attached – a timetable or a list of household chores can be found here. When a child feels the need to revisit moments captured in photos, they will have a free hand.
