Introduction: Bringing Comfort into Design
Pantone’s Colour of the Year for 2025, Mocha Mousse (Pantone 17-1230), embodies a growing desire for interiors that foster warmth, calm and connection. This velvety brown, with its soft undertones, invites a sense of grounded serenity into both personal and shared spaces.
Mocha Mousse seamlessly complements Innovus Decorative Products, offering versatility and sophistication to modern interiors. Whether you’re looking to create inviting accent walls or refined furniture finishes, this shade unlocks endless possibilities for spaces that celebrate sustainability, style and innovation.
Mocha Mousse: Why It Works
The rise of earthy tones signals a desire for interiors that reflect natural balance and tranquillity. Mocha Mousse hits the mark with its comforting depth and neutral flexibility. It pairs effortlessly with various colours and finishes, making it ideal for both residential sanctuaries and commercial environments. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Mocha Mousse aligns with today’s focus on creating spaces that nurture wellness and connection.
Mocha Mousse finds its strength in contrasts, offering opportunities to:
- Highlight a feature wall in living rooms or bedrooms.
- Serve as a furniture accent for cabinets, shelving, or panelling.
- Create balance against lighter neutrals like whites, creams, or greys.
- Add warmth when paired with textured finishes that evoke natural elements.
When paired with Innovus Decorative Products, Mocha Mousse finds its ideal match in materials that emphasise depth, texture and contemporary design.
Pairing Mocha Mousse with Innovus Decorative Products
Innovus’ range of decorative products blends style with sustainability, offering textures and finishes that enhance both functionality and beauty. Mocha Mousse’s adaptability shines when paired with contrasting finishes that create visual interest and harmony.
Here are two examples of standout Innovus combinations that amplify Mocha Mousse:
- Mocha Mousse + Andu Wood (Woodgrain) + Pure White (Unicolour)
Andu Wood’s warm, natural grain pairs beautifully with the richness of Mocha Mousse. Adding Pure White creates a bright, crisp contrast that keeps the design fresh and modern. This combination is perfect for kitchens, offering a harmonious blend of natural warmth and clean precision.
- Example: This modern kitchen showcases the versatility of Mocha Mousse, with an accent wall that adds depth and warmth. The cabinetry combines the natural grain of Andu Wood with crisp Pure White panels and counters, creating a harmonious balance between classic elegance and contemporary style.
2. Mocha Mousse + Urban Steel (Fantasy) + Nordic Ice (Woodgrain)
Urban Steel’s textured, industrial finish brings an edge to Mocha Mousse, while Nordic Ice introduces a cool, soft contrast. Together, these finishes create a striking balance, ideal for home offices or open-plan living areas.
- Example: In this elegant home office, Mocha Mousse takes centre stage with an accent wall, chairs and accessories that create a cohesive, inviting atmosphere. Reflecting Innovus’ Matching Life ethos, the textured Urban Steel panelling adds depth and character, while Nordic Ice desk panelling provides a crisp, sophisticated finish that seamlessly blends functionality and style.
