The Beauty of Brown

23 Jan 25

Mocha Mousse is Pantone’s colour of the year for 2025 and is shining a spotlight on shades of brown. Brown conjures feelings of earth, and taking inspiration from the natural world is a fantastic starting point when choosing colours for the home. An earthy palette reflects the beauty of nature and helps brings a touch of the outdoors in; this can help to lift moods and conjure positivity, which is especially useful during the colder and darker winter months. Brown tones can also bring a feeling of enveloping warmth and depth to a space, helping to create an environment that feels both organic and inviting.

With a choice of over 200 different paint colours, Francesca’s Paints’ offering includes a wide variety of beautiful brown shades, from rich and warm ‘Earth’ to cool and dark ‘Cohiba Brown’.

“Earthy browns are so cosy and, as colours that are abundant nature, will never go out of fashion,” says Francesca. “They are easy to incorporate into any scheme. Brown adds a homely charm to a room, making it feel warm, comforting and restful. Brown is definitely one of my favourite colours.”
