The Perfect Hue for Your Home

Pantone, the global authority on colour, has once again set the stage for the year ahead with its Colour of the Year for 2025: Mocha Mousse Pantone 17-1230

A rich and inviting shade that promises to redefine our living spaces. As a warm, earthy brown with soft, velvety undertones, Mocha Mousse brings a sense of comfort, sophistication, and calm—qualities we all crave in our homes.

If you’re looking to update your interior design for the coming year, this warm, versatile hue is the perfect starting point. Let’s dive into why Mocha Mousse is the ideal colour for your furniture and how you can incorporate it into your home.

What is Mocha Mousse?

Mocha Mousse is a deep, luxurious brown that has the perfect balance of warmth and softness. Think of the richness of coffee mixed with the indulgent texture of mousse—a colour that feels both grounded and uplifting.

Why Choose Mocha Mousse for Your Home?

This shade helps cultivate a sense of intimacy and comfort, which is exactly what many of us are seeking in our living spaces. Whether it’s for a cozy reading nook, a serene bedroom, or a welcoming living room, Mocha Mousse offers a grounding presence that helps bring balance to your home.

How to Incorporate Mocha Mousse into Your Home

The beauty of Mocha Mousse lies in its versatility—it pairs well with both neutral tones and bolder hues, making it an excellent choice for any space. Here are some ideas on how to incorporate this rich colour into your furniture:

Sofas and Chairs: A Mocha Mousse sofa or armchair adds an elegant and timeless element to your living room. Pair it with light wooden accents or metallic details for a modern touch or combine it with earthy textures like linen and jute for a more natural vibe. Whether you opt for a deep, plush sofa or a sleek, minimalist chair, Pabs has a premium range of Mocha Mousse inspired sofas for you to select from.
Accent Furniture: If you’re not ready to commit to a fully Mocha Mousse piece, consider adding the colour in smaller doses with accent furniture. A Mocha Mousse side table, ottoman, or coffee table can introduce the warmth of the hue without overwhelming the room. Pairing these with contrasting colours like soft cream or deep navy can help balance the overall look.
Bedroom Pieces: For a restful and soothing bedroom, Mocha Mousse is an ideal choice for bed heads and bedside tables. This warm tone can transform your space into a tranquil sanctuary where relaxation is the priority. Pair with soft, neutral bedding and textured throws for a cozy, layered look. Pabs offers a range of neutral linens for your next property styling job.

Pairing Mocha Mousse with Other Colours

One of the reasons Mocha Mousse is such a versatile colour is its ability to blend with a wide range of other tones. Here are some colour combinations that work beautifully with Mocha Mousse:

Earthy Tones: Mocha Mousse pairs wonderfully with other earth tones, such as beige, soft terracotta, olive green, and taupe. These combinations create a calm, organic feel that connects your interior design to nature.
Rich Jewel Tones: For a touch of opulence, try pairing Mocha Mousse with jewel tones like deep emerald, sapphire, or mustard yellow. The contrast between the warmth of Mocha Mousse and the vibrancy of these hues adds depth and drama to your design.
Muted Neutrals: If you prefer a more subdued palette, combine Mocha Mousse with soft neutrals like off-white, light grey, or pale blush. This creates a serene and balanced environment that feels both elegant and relaxed.
