The themed-graphic journal highlighting the Black and Brown perspective was founded by creative director, designer, and visual artist Mike Nicholls in 2017. With a focus on typography, space, composition, and illustrations, the editors took their readers on a visual journey through their print edition. The publications inspire curiosity, build imagination and cultivate passion through their visionary commitment to thought and artistry.
Umber paints Black people, Indigenous people, Latin Americans and marginalized people of color around the world, with the full palette of their experiences, allowing their brilliance to expand and redefine what it means to be Black and Brown.
