Benjamin Moore

Bold Yellow

336

Bold Yellow is a saturated medium yellow with warm undertones. Its LRV of 69.03 means it is bright and reflective, so it reads strongest in daylight. It can be used in kitchens, playrooms, or accent walls where a high-chroma yellow is appropriate.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Simply White for light contrast, and with Hale Navy or Hunter Green for depth; Caliente or Suntan Yellow can keep the palette warm.
