Lemon Peel vs Banana Split in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Lemon Peel and Banana Split are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room

Kitchen
Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Lemon Peel returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Lemon Peel returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
