It’s here! Keeping up with the colors gracing the design world is always fun. Pantone Color Institute announced their pick and it takes the cake! Well, it’s definitely in the dessert category, Mocha Mousse! We know what you’re thinking… Brown? But, this earthy and natural hue deserves center stage.
Mocha Mousse Stealing the Spotlight
Rich tones and warm comfort are bursting from the Color of the Year 2025. It’s been described as “sophisticated and earthy.” We can’t help but just eat it up! This shade has something for everyone. Who doesn’t enjoy the visual resemblance of warm, fragrant coffee and sweet indulgent chocolate? It’s the little things that can bring the biggest joys.
How it Translates into Home Design
Our main focus is creating an amazing home environment that is both comfortable and serene by surrounding you with beautiful elements. The design world was very inclusive of gray tones more than browns in the past years. This has slowly been shifting to include both gray and browns, where the well-loved look of “greige” was introduced. The temperature has now really turned up the warmth and brown is back! The announcement of the Color of the Year 2025 makes it official things are heating up!
One Big Happy Color Family
The biggest hurdle to decide when decorating your home is the color. That is the first thing people try to decide. A common question asked is, “What colors look best together?” Well, when it comes to brown, a monochromatic color scheme can knock all the other cool colors out of the water. There are so many different hues you can use that will have subtle transitions. The shift from color to color is seamless and really creates depth and dimension without that harsh contrast.
Add Some Texture
Thinking brown is boring? Think again! This neutral can really shine with the way you decide to feature it. Metallics, upholstery, materials, and more will tell a story with texture. It’s visually appealing and each element will create a narrative with the sheen and finish.
