Mocha Mousse Meets Florence Dolce: A Home Decor Harmony
Pantone colour of the year 2025 is a sophisticated and lush Mocha Mousse, a rich, versatile shade that combines warmth and subtlety to create a timeless, grounding effect. This colour is more than a trend—it’s a statement about embracing elegance and balance in our living spaces. Underpinned by our desire for everyday pleasures, Mocha Mousse expresses a level of thoughtful indulgence. Sophisticated and lush, yet at the same time an unpretentious classic, this colour extends our perceptions of browns from being humble and grounded to embracing the aspirational and luxe.
Florence Dolce: A Canvas for Mocha Mousse
Launched earlier this year, our Florence Dolce wallpaper has already been ahead of this colour trend! This exquisite design draws inspiration from traditional folk art, presenting a beautiful hand-painted piece. Florence Dolce is a light brown wallpaper, where a soft and warm colour palette gracefully unfolds, weaving a tapestry of calm and tranquility throughout any space. This wallpaper design embodies a sense of classic beauty infused with modern charm—a natural partner for the inviting warmth of Mocha Mousse.

Pantone has introduced five colour palettes that work around Mocha Mousse beautifully. Florence Dolce wallpaper fits seamlessly into two elegant colour schemes: “Relaxed Elegance“ and “Floral Pathways”.

For those who gravitate towards bolder expressions, the Floral Pathways colour scheme offers a vibrant take on botanical beauty. Here, Mocha Mousse serves as a grounding element, balancing the design’s more dynamic hues. This pairing works beautifully in dining rooms or feature walls, where the interplay of colour and pattern creates an inspiring and energising ambiance.
A medley of evocative floral scents, intertwined with soft mocha hues and muted willow green, guides us along a charming cobblestone path.
The Eco-Friendly Touch
When designing interiors, sustainability is key. That’s why I’m delighted to recommend Victory Colours’ eco paints as the perfect companion to Florence Dolce wallpaper. Their commitment to producing high-quality, environmentally friendly paints aligns seamlessly with my own values as a designer. Mocha Mousse from Victory Colours not only enhances the beauty of Florence Dolce but also contributes to a healthier, more sustainable home.
Embracing Mocha Mousse in Your Interiors
Mocha Mousse is a versatile colour that lends itself to a variety of applications. Whether you’re looking to create a feature wall with Florence Dolce or paint an entire room, this shade adapts effortlessly to different moods and styles. Its warm undertones make it an excellent choice for pairing with natural materials like wood and stone, while its subtle richness complements metallic accents and soft textiles.
Incorporating Mocha Mousse into your home doesn’t mean starting from scratch. Small updates, such as accent cushions, throws, or artwork that pick up on the colour’s tones, can make a big impact. For those ready to take the plunge, Florence Dolce in either Relaxed Elegance or Floral Pathways provides a seamless way to embrace this trend while adding a touch of timeless artistry to your space.
Looking Ahead
As we move into 2025, Pantone Mocha Mousse invites us to slow down and savour the beauty of our surroundings. It’s a colour that encourages mindfulness and a deeper connection to our spaces, making it a perfect choice for interiors that feel both modern and enduring.
I’m excited to see how my customers will incorporate Florence Dolce and Mocha Mousse into their homes. If you’re looking for inspiration or advice on how to pair wallpaper with paint, don’t hesitate to get in touch. Together, we can create interiors that are as beautiful as they are meaningful.
