Breathe Beautiful with Crocky Road

Earthborn's Colour of the Year 2025

Eco-friendly paint company, Earthborn, is excited to announce its Colour of the Year for 2025 as Crocky Road – a warm beige with subtle heritage-inspired green and yellow undertones.

A true Victorian colour perfect for older properties, Crocky Road is grounding and versatile, connecting customers with the rich and earthy tones of the natural world. This heritage buff in the distinctive ultra matt finish of Claypaint, not only enhances the features typical of period properties but also protects, by allowing walls to breathe. A beautiful pairing with other neutrals, or the ideal subtle backdrop when paired with a bolder colour scheme, Crocky Road is both dynamic and timeless.

As a warm neutral, Crocky Road is suitable for north, south, east and west facing rooms. In darker spaces, it helps to naturally brighten, while in lighter rooms, the soft green undertones help to balance the harsh light by reflecting it back into the space - resulting in a truly amenable wall colour for all room types.

“Earthy colour palettes continue to dominate the interiors space, however customers are looking at new ways in which they can be used and applied in the home. Whilst chalky neutrals are always a classic choice that will never age, Crocky Road offers an edge to a classic shade that works with all room orientations, thanks to its subtle green undertones.


Offering a grounding quality, it can act as an anchor in bolder schemes, inviting experimentation with vibrant hues, or sit beautifully with similar colours creating a harmonious backdrop for other neutral tones to shine from.


Warm and versatile with an earthy feel, Crocky Road helps bring us closer to nature all whilst allowing your walls to breathe once more"


Cathryn Sanders, Head of Creative at Earthborn
