It’s official: Mocha Mousse is Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2025. Pantone, the global authority on color, describes the shade as a warming, brown hue imbued with richness. A color reminiscent of chocolate and coffee, it evokes a comforting feeling while also exuding earthiness and sophistication.
“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,” Pantone Executive Director Laurie Pressman shared.
Infusing such a versatile color in your home is as easy as selecting paint color, or as intricate as selecting complementary details. In the kitchen, choose a warm, rich wood to replicate Mocha Mousse vibes.
This shade can also usher in a sense of calm in a serene space. Use Mocha Mousse as paint color inspiration for the home office, or select wood accents for the primary bedroom.
Using a color similar to Mocha Mousse in your family room brings warmth and richness to the space. This can be achieved not only through paint color, but by adding wooden beams as ceiling accents.
Speaking of accents, wood applications bring just the right amount of earthiness to a space. Wood accent walls work exceptionally well, especially in a two-story space with ample natural light.
Shades of brown provide a welcoming entrance in a foyer and provide a beautiful, neutral color for selections throughout the house, such as a staircase.
