Dakota Suede Ii Orange

Dakota Suede II Orange presents a rich, even field of warm orange with the understated tactile character of suede. In close-up, its softly brushed surface creates subtle tonal movement rather than a visible pattern.

About this fabric

This plain orange fabric reads as a deep burnt orange with a gentle terracotta warmth, avoiding the brightness of a clean tangerine. The close, fine texture is softened by a light nap, giving the surface a quiet velvety appearance as the shade shifts slightly across the swatch. With no motif competing for attention, the colour and touchable surface remain the defining features of this Kirkby Design upholstery fabric.

How to use it

Pair the warm burnt-orange tone with dark timber, tobacco leather or creamy neutrals for a grounded room scheme. It also works as a confident accent on a chair, ottoman or upholstered headboard.

Use this warm burnt-orange shade to bring depth and tactile softness to upholstered seating, headboards or occasional pieces.

Pairs well with

Dakota Suede Ii Orange 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.
