There’s something so timeless about earth tones. They have a warm, nostalgic quality that translates into a comfortable home. From terracotta hues to forest greens and shades of brown, it’s easy to feel embraced by the comfort of these warm hues.

Plus, considering one of the biggest colour trends of late is inspired by the 2025 Pantone Colour of the Year, Mocha Mousse – it’s clear earth tones are taking the spotlight. Inspired by the delectable qualities of chocolate and coffee, this shade is a fitting choice for those who aspire to create a calm and captivating space.

But while this shade, and many other earth tones, are taking centre stage this year and embedding themselves into our winter aesthetics, these natural hues can easily carry you through the seasons, bringing warmth and cosiness to your home.

While earth tones seamlessly blend into your space, choosing the right pieces is important. Surely there are already plenty of earth tones in your home – timber furniture, a brown leather sofa, or hints of greenery – but in fact, choosing the right statement pieces can truly bring your home together.

And for RJ Living, thoughtful design and an ode to nature are at the heart of their ethos.
