Pantone, the global colour authority and provider of professional colour language standards and digital solutions for the design community, has named Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse, as the colour of the year for 2025.
“Underpinned by our desire for everyday pleasures, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse expresses a level of thoughtful indulgence” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director Pantone Color Institute.
“Sophisticated and lush, yet at the same time an unpretentious classic, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse, extends our perceptions of the browns from being humble and grounded to embrace aspirational and luxe. Infused with subtle elegance and earthy refinement, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse presents a discrete and tasteful touch of glamour. A flavourful brown shade, Pantone 17-1230 Mocha Mousse envelopes us with its sensorial warmth.”
Laurie Pressman, vice president of the Pantone Color Institute, said “The everlasting search for harmony filters through into every aspect of our lives including our relationships, the work we do, our social connections and the natural environment that surrounds us. Harmony brings feelings of contentment, inspiring a positive state of inner peace, calm, and balance as well as being tuned in with the world around us. Harmony embraces a culture of connection and unity as well as the synthesis of our mental, spiritual and physical well-being.
“With that in mind, for Pantone Colour of the Year 2025 we look to a colour that progresses our embrace of the feeling of our Pantone Colour of the Year, Pantone 13-1023 Peach Fuzz into another dimension, extending further into our desire for comfort, and the indulgence of simple pleasures that we can gift and share with others.”
In celebration of the 26th anniversary of Pantone Colour of the Year, Pantone will also for the first time highlight the colour in events and experiences all over the world.
From New York and London, to Shanghai and Mumbai, Pantone will be sharing public spaces and colour events that will make Pantone Colour of Year 2025 accessible for all.
