All about the browns

Stepping away from the brighter and bolder tones of recent years, 2025 presents a more natural and muted colour palette. Just look at Pantone’s Colour of the Year, with the warm and rich brown hues of Mocha Mousse reflecting a desire for warmth, comfort and connection.

Brown is clearly presenting as the trending colour of the year, an indulgent tone that takes inspiration from the earth and nature. Opting for a warm and deep shade of brown can help make the interior space feel welcoming and cosy, while a cooler, lighter tone can create a calmer environment.

 

Feeling bold?

Feeling bolder? Consider suggesting a rich cherry red – a statement colour that strikes the ideal balance between elegance and modernity.

Double colour drenching

While colour drenching as a trend has been around for a while (where an entire room is painted in a single colour, including the walls, woodwork and ceiling), double colour drenching is on the rise and is set to take this aesthetic one step further in 2025. As the name suggests, this involves the use of two or more shades within the same bold colour palette.

This technique creates a seamless and sophisticated look that can transform any space. For trade professionals, it presents an opportunity to showcase your expertise while delivering striking results. You could even consider including furnishings such as radiators and built-in storage units in the paint scheme, allowing them to blend seamlessly into the background and create a more cohesive look.
