Both energetic and nuanced, Dorset is a light, saturated warm orange with balanced undertones. With an LRV of 73, it brings warmth without overwhelming a space, well-suited for main living areas and dining rooms. For a cross-brand equivalent, Valspar's Afternoon Stroll is a near-identical match. Farrow & Ball's Sudbury Yellow runs close as well. Coordinate with warm whites for trim and natural materials like jute and linen for a layered look.
