A new year…a new announcement in design. The Pantone Color Institute has chosen their defining color for 2025, and Mocha Mousse is all about indulging in warmth, comfort and luxury. We love showing you how the design world uses color, and this announcement is no exception. For many years, gray reigned supreme. As we move forward, the brown color family is showing how easily it contributes passion and beauty in the home decor realm.
Meet Mocha Mousse
Warm and inviting, this year’s color is known for “subtle elegance.” Across many industries, the use of color sends a message, and in the world of home design, Mocha Mousse invites a feeling of contentment that so many of us are in pursuit of. The color showcases undertones of yellow and red, creating a softness that pairs beautifully with other colors. But, within the color family, it layers nicely with other brown hues for a monochromatic palette.
Designer Details
Amber, copper, bronze…there are so many stunning finishes that fall into the brown color family. When it comes to home decor, you know the design is in the details. At Timan, we love enhancing the look of your home with window treatment details that create a stunning finish.
Monochromatic Vibes
Does the idea of decorating with all one color family (monochromatic) make you feel like it might fall flat? Think again! The varying hues of color are a subtle way to bring dimension to the look of the space. Choose textured surfaces and veining to draw the eye.
Which Colors Pair Well?
When using an earthy, organic color family, choosing other colors that pair well can be subjective. You’ve seen how well the hues of brown colors, like Mocha Mousse can come together in design. But what about other colors?
Brown with Green
A design created by nature itself, we love how greens and browns create beautiful harmony together in a space.
Gray and Brown
Can you feature gray and brown in the same space? We think so. The wood floor, the ceiling and the leather upholstery offer standout design for beautiful contrast in this neutral room.
An Electric Palette
We worked with Sapphire Pear to create a stunning palette of color in this bedroom space. With browns as the grounding colors in the room, the sky is the limit as long as happiness is your guide.
Brown and Black
Wood tones in your favorite stain colors are a dynamic way to add warmth and charm. Black contrasts the wood beautifully, but allows the grain to stand out.
