“For Pantone Color of the Year 2025, we look to a mellow brown hue whose inherent richness and sensorial and comforting warmth extends further into our desire for comfort, and the indulgence of simple pleasures that we can gift and share with others.”

- Laurice Pressman, VP of Pantone Color Institute -

A Color to Savor

Pantone’s Color of the Year 2025, Mocha Mousse, introduces a grounding tone to the design world. Its rich, earthy hue evokes a sense of comfort, elegance, and connection to nature, making it a versatile choice for modern and classic interiors. It is a sensory experience that evokes the richness of indulgent flavors and is as inviting as a freshly brewed espresso or a decadent piece of chocolate, bringing a sense of coziness and sophistication to any interior.

Whether used as a primary color or an accent, Mocha Mousse has a unique ability to infuse interiors with a refined warmth that feels luxurious yet approachable. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for highlighting statement pieces, like the Rainforest Suspension and Flusso Round Dining Table, which bring out its depth and richness in beautifully designed spaces.

Mocha Mousse – Why it Works

Mocha Mousse stands out for its ability to blend seamlessly with a variety of design styles. Its neutral undertones make it adaptable, pairing effortlessly with warm metallics like gold and brass, as well as natural materials like wood and marble. This shade resonates particularly well in spaces designed for relaxation, such as living rooms, dining areas, and bedrooms, where its inviting tone fosters comfort and elegance.

Pieces like the Carlo Armchair, Sparta Floor and Table Lamps, and the Royal Suspension enhance the relaxing qualities. With its soft curves, the Carlo Armchair brings both comfort and sophistication to any bedroom, perfectly complementing the warm, earthy tones of Mocha. The Sparta Floor and Table Lamps, with their soft lighting, provide an ambient glow with intricate design and refined finishes. Complemented by the Grace Bench, Grace Bedside Table, and Tiffany Center Table, these carefully curated pieces bring a harmonious blend of serenity and sophistication, transforming interiors into elegant sanctuaries of comfort and style.
