Good Questions: What Is The Name Of That Color?

5.08yellowwall.jpgHello 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.

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