Interior design is taking a new approach to colour in the year ahead. It’s not just about how colours look anymore, but how they make us feel. Next year’s colour trends centre around creating spaces that are calming, balanced and uplifting. With Pantone and Benjamin Moore already revealing their colour picks, we’ve had a glimpse of how our homes might look. But what do these hues mean for us, and how can they transform the way we experience our living spaces?

                                                                       

                                                                                                                                                                                  

Pantone's colour of the year

 

Mocha Mousse, a rich and earthy brown, has been named Pantone’s Colour of the Year for 2025. Sophisticated yet comforting, this warm and deep hue evokes a sense of security and relaxation. Its grounding quality makes any space feel both inviting and serene. Brown has a way of bringing stability and comfort, much like the cosy feeling you get from a cup of coffee or a piece of chocolate - it’s familiar, indulgent, and calming.

 

Mocha Mousse works well in spaces where you want to unwind, like the living room, bedroom, or snug. Its versatility makes it a great match for both modern and traditional decor, so it’s a solid choice no matter your style.

Dulux colour of the year

 

Dulux’s colour of the year is True Joy - a lively, hue full of warmth and optimism. This colour brings a pop of happiness to any room with its fun and welcoming feel, it is usually tied to calm and nurturing feelings, but True Joy adds a dash of playful energy; it’s all about spreading positivity, sparking creativity, and filling your home with good vibes.

 

True Joy is amazing for spaces where you want to encourage connection and creativity, such as kitchens, dining rooms, or play areas. It’s the kind of colour that instantly makes you feel good, adding a joyful atmosphere that lifts your mood.
