Every design for Kumla

Have you ever stopped at Kumla Högar and seen how the landscape opens out all around? Kumla is the main town of its municipality and a town in Närke, and it is exactly the nearness of nature and the open plain that gives the place its character. Traces of both old craft and newer town life sit side by side here.

The town lies in Örebro County, a stone's throw from Mosås on the edge of Örebro. Around Kumla you find plenty of history in the ground – the old sandstone quarry and the Björka clay pit tell of how the district was once cut and shaped. If you want quieter moments there are Viaparken and the settling pond, while Galleri Örsta offers art for anyone after something else.

Those are the things that stay: the footpaths, the quarries, an afternoon in the park. The map of Kumla picks out exactly those places and makes them easy to recognise again. For anyone who grew up here or settled down, a shirt with the town's map becomes a small way of carrying the home district with you, wherever you go.
