Benjamin Moore

Banan-Appeal

332

Banan-Appeal is a soft yellow with a faint warm undertone that keeps it from reading neon. Its LRV of 82.97 reflects a high amount of light, so it reads pale and bright on walls. It is suitable for kitchens, breakfast areas, or ceilings where a light yellow is needed.

Pair it with White Dove and Soft Chamois for light neutrals, and add Kendall Charcoal or Pale Sea Mist for contrast.

Banan-Appeal in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
