As we begin 2025, Pantone introduces an earthy and rich choice for the Colour of the Year: PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse. A warming, brown hue imbued with richness, Mocha Mousse is giving comforting thoughts of chocolate and coffee.
Incorporating Mocha Mousse into your home interiors can instantly transform your space into a homely rustic haven. You could use it as an accent colour, skillfully paired with other shades for a balanced look. Alternatively, you could experiment with earthy-toned accessories — a non-committal way to experiment with the annual colour trend. Explore a few Mocha Mousse inspired homewares we adore in this edit.

Hawtrey by Edward Bulmer
Edward Bulmer does some great colours which hone in on the earthy tones of this year's colour of the year. With these more rustic tones, why not incorporate the grounded vibe into a reading room or a study.
Lighting from Jim Lawrence or Neptune
Mocha Mousse teams up well with antique brass style lighting. Two fantastic options are from either Jim Lawrence, with a wall light like something out of a vintage gentleman’s club; or from Neptune with their pendant lighting option, which offers a contemporary take on a historicly classic design
Fabrics and linens from Susie Watson Designs
To accent the Mocha Mousse, creams and natural linens work exceptionally, Susie Watson Designs have some great stripe linens that can be used to bring out the homely vibe that only a rustic interior can give you, either upholster some of your furniture or perhaps with a new set of curtains, you can really bring your room together.
Andro Jute & Cotton Rug by Nkuku
Perhaps an easier way to accent the new colour of the year is with a simple yet effective rug such as this one by Nkuku, combining both style and comfort with its handmade design for a cushioned feel underfoot.
Florine Rug in Red & Dark Taupe by Oka
If you want to pair the earthly tones of Mocha Mocha with a pop of colour, perhaps consider this gorgeous rug from Oka. The colours will compliment one another perfectly and add a level of sophisticated whimsy into your room.
Avignon Soft Tumbled Limestone by Beswick Stone
Classic Cotswold stone flooring is a great match for the colour of the year. And perhaps there is no option more popular than the Avignon Stonework by Beswick Stone. An ideal way to round out the cottagecore aesthetic that is routed into Cotswolds homes.
