Pantone Colour of the Year 2025: Mocha Mousse

17 January 2025



The Pantone Colour of the Year is an annual tradition revelled in by designers and consumers alike. When selecting the upcoming colour of the year Pantone look at trends and themes that are gaining importance throughout every pillar of design.

This process brings together figures in the industry to discuss colour theory, whilst highlighting the relationship between colour and culture - resulting in one shade they believe is going to take the upcoming year by storm.

Thanks to a recent population in the adorning of neutrals in residential and commercial spaces, as well as a global love for warm shades, the announcement of the 2025 Colour of the Year by Pantone came as no surprise: PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse.


"Underpinned by our desire for every day pleasures, PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse expresses a level of thoughtful indulgence. Sophisticated and lush, yet at the same time an unpretentious classic, PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse extends our perceptions of the browns from being humble and grounded to embrace aspirational and luxe."

Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director Pantone Color Institute

The colour brand drew their inspiration from a desire for harmony. Although usually the Pantone Colour of the Year is a bold and vibrant choice - Mocha Mousse is rich and luxurious, adding an elegant warmth to interiors and an exceptional way to evoke the feeling of comfort.

With the increased desire for sustainable living, Pantone wanted to align their choice with the natural world. They believe that surrounding ourselves with organic products, materials and colours helps us feel more connected to our environment. Mocha Mousse honours and promotes balance and positively impacts wellbeing.


"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."

Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director Pantone Color Institute

Mocha Mousse can stand alone or serve as a strong foundation, thanks to the versatility of the shade it can enhance a wide range of rooms whilst suiting a variety of personal styles. This year's choice generates an earthy colour palette that can elevate an already neutral interior or be used alongside a pop of colour to add layers to your space.

The neutrality of Mocha Mousse also opens up space to experiment with textures and materials such as jute, embracing natural elements and adding texture and depth to the room. Similarly, touches of greenery with houseplants blend seamlessly with the neutral hue of this year's colour of the year and emphasise the concept of connecting with nature and bringing the outside in, creating a calm feel to your home.
