Each year, the Pantone Colour of the Year ignites conversations around colour and culture, reflecting global emotions, trends, and aspirations through a single distinct hue. For 2025, the Pantone Colour Institute has chosen PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse, a warm, rich brown that embodies indulgence, connection, and a soothing sense of comfort.
Why Mocha Mousse 17-1230?
Mocha Mousse speaks to our collective desire for balance and simplicity in a complex world. With its lush yet unpretentious nature, this shade offers a comforting embrace akin to cherished everyday pleasures - think of the warmth of coffee, the richness of chocolate, and the grounding presence of natural wood.
As Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Colour Institute, puts it:
“Underpinned by our desire for everyday pleasures, PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse expresses a level of thoughtful indulgence. Sophisticated and lush, yet at the same time an unpretentious classic.”
A Global Hue for Modern Times
Mocha Mousse isn’t just a colour; it’s an experience. It reflects our yearning for spaces that promote harmony, comfort, and a touch of indulgence - qualities increasingly sought after in today’s work environments. Whether used as a neutral base or a bold statement, this shade aligns perfectly with the modern workplace’s need for adaptability and emotional resonance.
In the workplace, colours play a critical role in shaping mood, productivity, and collaboration. PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse offers a versatile foundation that works seamlessly across various interior design elements, from furniture and textiles to walls and decorative accents.
