Pantone’s Colour of the Year is Mocha – a rich, earthy tone that strikes a perfect balance between warmth and sophistication, resonating with modern and timeless aesthetics alike. We’re thrilled to see this trend align with renowned brands like Corobrik, offering architects, designers, and homeowners an opportunity to embrace Mocha through face brick and paving ranges.

Why Mocha?

Mocha’s versatility lies in its ability to complement both contemporary and classic styles. It evokes a sense of comfort and connection to nature while maintaining a refined edge. For outdoor spaces, it blends seamlessly into natural surroundings, while indoors, it creates a welcoming and grounded atmosphere.

Mocha in Face Brick Design

Face brick has always been synonymous with enduring style and functionality, and incorporating shades like Mocha elevates its appeal for 2025. Here’s how:

Modern Warmth: Pair Mocha-toned bricks like Corobrik’s Titanium or Onyx ranges with neutral whites or soft beiges for a contemporary facade that radiates understated elegance.
Bold Contrast: For those seeking dramatic effects, use Mocha bricks as accents against darker cladding or painted surfaces. The earthy tone softens the overall look while adding depth.
Sustainable Chic: Mocha shades highlight the eco-friendly ethos of clay face brick and paving, aligning with the growing trend of sustainable architecture.

Mocha’s adaptability makes it a star player in this year’s design palette.

Combine it with the other trends to create standout spaces:

Textured Finishes: Pair Mocha bricks with textured surfaces like wood, metal, or concrete to enhance visual interest.
Earthy Palettes: Complement Mocha with greens, terracottas, and sand tones to achieve a natural, cohesive look.
Indoor-Outdoor Flow: Use Mocha bricks and pavers to blur boundaries between interiors and exteriors, a key trend for 2025.
