As an event designer or planner, you’ve likely felt the excitement—and maybe a little pressure—that comes with Pantone’s annual announcement of its Color of the Year. For 2025, that color is Mocha Mousse, a rich, indulgent brown that’s both grounding and versatile. It’s a shade that invites creativity but also requires thoughtful integration into your event designs.
At CORT Events, we understand that your role is about more than following trends; it’s about creating spaces that resonate with your clients and their guests. That’s why we’re here to offer practical ways to bring this trend to life—not just as a fleeting color choice but as an element that enhances the overall event experience.
Start Where You Are: Incorporating Mocha Mousse with Intent
The beauty of Mocha Mousse lies in its versatility. Whether you’re starting from scratch or enhancing an existing design, you can use complementary colors, textures, and materials to make this hue shine. Here’s how:
- Build Around the Color: Use Mocha Mousse as a grounding tone by pairing it with furniture and decor in neutral shades like creamy whites, soft beiges, or warm grays. These colors create balance while allowing the richness of Mocha Mousse to stand out.
- Layer with Textures: Browns and neutrals take on new life when combined with different textures. For example, consider adding the Del Mar Tonal Rug in Earth Brown to create warmth and depth in your lounge or seating areas. Combining this with plush or woven elements enhances tactile appeal.
- Add Pops of Contrast: Accent colors like deep greens, burnt oranges, or even metallic golds bring vibrancy to your palette while staying cohesive. Introduce these through decorative items or lighting, and complement them with furniture like the Valencia Loveseat in Coffee Brown for a rich, luxurious vibe.
- Highlight Natural Materials: Furniture with finishes in wood, leather, and stone blends beautifully with the earthy warmth of Mocha Mousse. For instance, the Galactic Cocktail Table adds a sleek, modern touch, while the Beverly Oasis Large Grouping in Brown Fabric offers comfort and cohesion in larger event spaces.
