Orion Aluminium

Name: Orion Aluminium
Brand: Kirkby Design

Orion Aluminium presents a cool, pale aluminium-grey ground with a fine horizontal texture running across the cloth. Its quiet tonal variation gives the surface more depth than a flat plain.

About this fabric

This Kirkby Design fabric has an even woven appearance, with delicate lighter and darker horizontal threads creating subtle movement across the aluminium-grey shade. The cool tone reads as clean and understated, while the softly textured surface catches the light without becoming glossy or decorative. No performance features or further technical specifications have been supplied for this fabric, so suitability should be confirmed against the intended application.

How to use it

Pair Orion Aluminium with crisp whites, pale timber and brushed metal for a cool contemporary room, or warm its grey tone with oatmeal, mushroom and natural woven accents.

Use this cool pale grey as a calm foundation for contemporary upholstery, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

Orion Aluminium 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.
