Orion Iii Indigo

Name: Orion Iii Indigo
Brand: Kirkby Design

Orion Iii Indigo reads as a deep, cool indigo blue, with fine horizontal tonal movement running across its close, softly textured surface. Its near-solid appearance keeps the colourway quiet, while the weave prevents it from looking flat.

About this fabric

Across the swatch, dark blue and slightly lighter blue threads create a restrained, horizontal striated effect rather than a distinct printed motif. The indigo tone has a cool, shaded depth, with the surface catching light in fine, low-contrast bands. Its dense-looking woven appearance gives the colourway a composed, tailored character for upholstered furniture. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification for Orion Iii Indigo.

How to use it

Use Orion Iii Indigo on a sofa, armchair or headboard where its cool depth can balance chalky walls, pale stone and natural timber. Introduce softer blue-grey textiles nearby to echo the subtle tonal variation in the weave.

Use this cool indigo tone to anchor upholstery against pale neutrals, charcoal or warm timber.

Pairs well with

Orion Iii Indigo 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.
