Alvar Sunset is a saturated, warm orange textile with a softly brushed-looking surface and subtle tonal movement across the cloth. Its glowing colour reads like late evening sunlight rather than a flat, primary orange.

About this fabric

The surface appears finely textured, with delicate vertical shading and a gentle variation in brightness that gives the orange tone added depth. At 300gsm and 144cm wide, it has a substantial handle suited to upholstery applications. Both pattern repeat measurements are 0cm, so the fabric presents as a continuous plain colour rather than a visibly recurring motif. The strong sunset-orange tone brings an energetic but enveloping warmth to the design.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a statement armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its glowing orange tone can act as the room’s focal point. Balance it with warm neutrals, natural timber and muted clay shades to soften its saturated character.

A rich, softly textured orange with the depth and presence to bring warmth to upholstered seating and accent pieces.

Pairs well with

Alvar Sunset is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
