DIPLO HOME ♖ Umbra Conceal Grande Invisible Bookshelf

Posted on Oct 4, 2011 in Diplo HOME Highlights, Diplo TUMMY | 5 comments

The invisible bookshelf in the kitchen is finally up! Yay! And the effect is exactly as I hoped. Despite buying it together, TD was still baffled when he saw it. Mission accomplished. Haha! 

I remember getting some good feedback from friends who agreed with me that invisible floating shelving was a neat idea. I was weighing these 2 options from Umbra which carry a good amount of books…

(screen caps of my Pinterest)

Because the second option was actually smaller than pictured, and probably couldn’t hold some of my heavier cookbooks, I opted for the first option, the Umba Conceal Grande.

      • Winner of the Umbra-Pratt Design Competition
      • Floats large books
      • 20 lb (9 kg) max load
      •  10″ (25.4 cm) max book depth
      • Recommend directly screwing into stud
      • Hardware Included
Check out the drawer space I freed up! It’s also easier to spot all my recipe books on the floating shelves than digging it out of a drawer.
I have another Conceal Grande for the study. We placed between our workstations so we can place books we regularly refer to. Okay who am I kidding… the books I regularly refer to! Hehehe! Will post pics as soon as I have it up! Stay tuned!

  • I purchased this product in ACE Gandaria. Also available in Aksara (for almost twice the price I think) Jakarta.
  • Umbra products are available in specialty stores in Manila. The most Umbra products I’ve seen in one store is in SM Our Home Megamall in Manila.
