Leather Colour Trends: The Orange Edit

Orange colour trend

When designing seating or interior spaces, orange is a surprisingly versatile colour.

More than just a warm colour, we’re taking a look at how orange leather tones can be easily incorporated into seating projects and the potential benefits they bring.

Start Subtle 

Orange is perfect as an accent tone to add a pop of colour into seating design, think scatter cushions or piping detail on booth seating. This warm tone can also be used to highlight the most important elements of your interior and seating design.

Combine

Play around with your seating design by using a bold orange leather and complement it with a patterned fabric, just like this chair which combines Yarwood Leather’s Style Burnt Orange with a multicoloured fabric.

Don’t forget about the mood

Lighter orange tones like Yarwood Leather’s Dollaro faux leather in Pumpkin, can help to promote a soothing, or healthy atmosphere, whereas darker, earthy tones, like Yarwood Leather’s Style in Burnt Orange promote comfort.

Embrace the season

When people think of orange they may think of falling autumn leaves, pumpkins and perhaps embers in a fireplace. It’s easy to bring an autumnal feel into interior design space with the latest addition to Yarwood Leather’s Mustang range, Pumpkin seen in action in this country pub.

Orange in Hospitality

When it comes to hospitality projects, orange tones can be effectively used to promote a social, fun atmosphere. Orange is known to be a colour that stimulates the appetite, perfect for bars and restaurants, perhaps not as good for patrons waistlines!

Orange in the Workplace

Orange tones promote creativity and success, as well as stimulating mental activity and increasing oxygen to the brain, pretty impressive! Perfect for incorporating into any workplace design, as a feature on classic, neutral seating, or in breakout spaces. This Sven Oyster chair features Yarwood Leather’s Mustang Pumpkin.
