Every year, designers and colour enthusiasts wait with excited anticipation for the next Pantone Colour of the Year announcement. Well, it’s arrived, and for 2025 the notorious trend setters have gone with Mocha Mousse. This comforting, muted, delectable brown hue reflects the allure and indulgence of coffee and chocolate, evoking its richness and understated sophistication.
Pantone suggests that the choice reflects our shared desire for comfort. Looking to incorporate this nurturing hue in your interior design? The team at Woodards have a few ideas for you below. But first, let’s take a look at why the Pantone Colour of the Year is such a big deal for so many of us.
Matching Our Collective Mood With a Colour
Running for 25 years, the Pantone Colour of the Year is more than just a forecast. It's a cultural marker that creates conversation about the relationship between colour and culture. It also has a huge influence on interior design trends. Pantone chooses a colour each year that reflects the collective mood, attitudes, societal priorities and aesthetic shifts of the time.
Never failing to capture the global zeitgeist, it both encapsulates emerging patterns in popularity while influencing future design directions. Many designers describe it as a yearly palette that reflects our collective desire in a single, distinct hue while telling the ongoing story of our ever-evolving cultural fabric, one shade at a time.
Incorporating Mocha Mousse in Your Interior Design
This year’s direction embraces the unending cosiness of natural, autumnal hues. Mocha Mousse bridges the gap between neutrals and colours, offering a nice blend of neutral warmth with a subtle hint of colour provided by the undertones of red. Some ways you could include Mocha Mousse in your interior design:
Although Mocha Mousse is the hot colour of the moment, an earthy tone like this never goes out of style. The colour goes nicely with other cosy shades like clay reds, sandy tellows and mossy greens. Rich yet grounded, this allows for a distinctive palette that brings versatility to interior spaces, with countless opportunities for layering and depth.
A tired kitchen. Worn carpet. Walls that have seen better days. When an investment property becomes vacant, it can be tempting to renovate everything at once.
Would you hand the keys to your brand-new car to someone you barely know without making sure it was insured? It's a question we often ask investors when discussing landlord insurance.
Before a prospective renter walks through the door, much of the work that determines a successful tenancy should already be underway.
A residential rental provider can increase the rent in Victoria, but increasing the rent is no longer as simple as choosing a new weekly amount and giving the renter notice.
