Dover White

SW 6385

Dover White (SW 7015) is a warm, creamy off-white with soft yellow-beige undertones that lend it a slightly golden cast. With an LRV of 83, it reflects a high amount of light, making it a practical choice for living rooms, hallways, and kitchens where consistent warmth is needed without strong color saturation. It works well alongside Accessible Beige (SW 7036) for tonal continuity, while Alabaster (SW 7008) can serve as a clean trim contrast.

Nomadic Desert (SW 6107), Wool Skein (SW 6148), and Shoji White (SW 7042) also coordinate naturally in layered neutral schemes.
