Bring every nuance of your message to light with the all-new Umbra for Keynote – where color accents frame a wholly modern foundation of bold type & crisp, structured hierarchy.

Our new Umbra theme system was designed to be an understated workhorse – a modernist blend of crisp, bold type and color contrasts that exudes cool without drawing undue attention away from the subject matter. An eye-catching pop of color accents modernist titles and an adaptive, hierarchal editorial sub-grid that's designed to maximize clarity with a stylish, timeless flair. Version 1.1 adds new Umbra - Light theme variants + expanded extras, and the v1.2 update adds full Targeting Support in the new Composer Engine.
