Mocha Mousse Oozes Warmth, Elegance, and Desire

Pantone Color Institute’s Color of The Year, Mocha Mousse, celebrates elegance, earthy tones, and chocolatey hues. Since the ancient past, these rich brown tones in art and design have been an esteemed favorite, a testimony of the deep-rooted connection between man and earth, and a symbol of man’s desire for everyday indulgences. 

Underpinned by our desire for everyday pleasures, Mocha Mousse expresses [our] thoughtful indulgence.

Leatrice Eiseman, Pantone Executive Director

Notably, Mocha Mousse also transcends color, for it fuses timeless traditions and up-to-the-minute trends, such as a hot cup of chocolate or tailored trousers. 

Deep-looking as it is, it enables various spaces to become visually pleasing and turns spaces into hubs of comfort and style. This hue complements neutral tones, bright accents, and even metallics. 

In fact, many rustic art landscapes’ untamed beauty and modern abstracts’ emotional depth got some help from Mocha Mousse and similar color combinations. 

Discover how Mocha Mousse emanates warmth, elegance, and desire in these pieces.
