Valspar

Banana Split

V053-1

Banana Split is a pale golden yellow with a creamy base. It is cheerful. The hue can wake up a breakfast nook, kids' room, or laundry area without reaching neon.

Across larger surfaces, it throws warmth onto trim and ceilings, so sample beside existing whites. Pair with natural wicker, pale oak, or soft green accents. Cool gray tile can make the yellow seem sharper than it looks on the strip.

Banana Split 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.
