Good Questions: What Is The Name Of That Color?

5.08yellowwall.jpg Hello AT,

I am in love with the yellow walls in the background of this scene from "Heroes". Do you by any chance know what color it is or a color similar to it? I love the bright effect it has on the house!

Thanks! Jenny

It's a little far to tell, but this looks similar to Benjamin Moore BananAppeal.

A really wonderful yellow that lightens up a room is Kelly Moore FULL SUN. i Lo0Ove it! It looks browner on the swatch, but once it's on the walls, it gorgeous! I get a lot of people coming into my kitchen wanting to know the name of it.

Jenny, You're right. It is a great color. I noticed it just last night, particularly how the modern red painting (which I can't find a photo of) plays against it. Here are links to some better pix.

color matching on a uncalibrated computer screen monitor is kind of a moot point imo.

Looks similar to the color I have in my living room, which is Sherwin Williams' Jersey Cream. I'll try and find a picture and post it elsewhere for you later.

it looks like Baby's First Surprise to me.

Can't see it that well but looks like Martha Stewart for Sherwin Williams Nut Meat.
