Mocha Mousse is a color that fits particularly well to furnishings, here are some ideas for introducing it into your home.
Pantone has expressed its color forecast for the coming months: the Color of the year 2025 is called Mocha Mousse and as the name suggests it is a variation of brown, a shade tending towards beige that recalls, in fact, a coffee mousse.
Compared to more bold shades seen in previous editions, Mocha Mousse is a color already recurring in homes, just think of the leather of seats and sofas, the parquet in warmer shades and the smoked glass of tables and sideboards. It is a familiar, evocative and reassuring color that brings elegance in a simple and discreet way. Furthermore, Pantone has also proposed a palette of six colors, lighter and darker, to create the perfect combination.
Textiles for the living room and bedroom
Mocha Mousse is a soft shade, which is why it is suitable for creating a welcoming and elegant living area. It is a minimalist and whispered color and is one of the colors available for the iconic Osaka sofa, designed by Pierre Paulin in 1967 and now produced by laCividina.
This sofa, like a parenthesis, emphasizes the softness of the color and transforms the perception of space, making it more welcoming. The same color takes on a completely different style in the Shaal sofa by Arper: designed by the Doshi Levien studio, it is like a basket lined with soft cushions and in the Mocha Mousse version it is welcoming and sophisticated.
The same company offers, for the study area, the Kinesi Met seat by Lievore Altherr Molina: available from 2021 in a palette of warm and material tones that are perfectly in harmony with Mocha Mousse.
Staying in the living area, the Sideways sofa, designed by Rikke Frost for Carl Hansen & Søn, is very interesting. It has a compact shape, and the softness of the padded component is combined with the beauty of wood, always a great protagonist in Danish furniture.
Moving to the sleeping area, the Marty bed designed by Studio E-ggs is by Bolzan: the main feature is the large and generous headboard, intentionally inspired by the back of a sofa, imagining the bed not only as a place of rest but also a relaxation corner to read or use the computer comfortably.
Lights and sculptures to create an atmosphere
If one prefer to introduce this color in a more discreet way, you can opt for an accessory or a light, for example by focusing on an iconic, characterful or innovative product. Like the Pipistrello lamp by Gae Aulenti which, in the bronze version, fits effortlessly into the Mocha Mousse palette.
The lamp, produced by Martinelli Luce, is one of the architect’s most significant works and still has a disruptive impact today. Also interesting is the portable version of the Bellhop lamp by Barber and Osgerby, produced by Flos.
For a decorative touch inspired by this color, Pols Potten‘s Roman Brown Vases and Tacchini‘s E63 Table Lamp stand out as distinctive elements that enrich any room with their unique combination of aesthetics and functionality.
