Farrow & Ball

Dorset Cream

No. 68

Dorset Cream is a warm yellow with creamy undertones that read soft rather than bold. With an LRV of 82.4, it reflects a high amount of light and works well in kitchens, dining rooms, and other areas that benefit from a warm, open feel. The yellow base is moderate enough to function as a neutral in well-lit spaces.

Pairing it with Farrow & Ball Pointing or Wimborne White keeps the scheme cohesive and light, while Green Smoke or Hague Blue provide contrast through cooler, deeper tones. Dayroom Yellow and Sudbury Yellow sit close on the spectrum for a layered warm palette.
