Bold Heritage 

with Earthborn's Crocky Road

Earthborn’s Colour of the Year for 2025, Crocky Road, is the perfect warm

beige with subtle heritage-inspired green and yellow undertones. Inviting

experimentation with vibrant, saturated hues, the quintessential buff provides

character and adds a whimsical touch to period properties with a fresh approach.

A classic Victorian shade with grounding qualities, Crocky Road can act as an anchor for more daring colour schemes, allowing homeowners to inject a playful contrast that enhances the overall sophistication of a space while embracing a bold, timeless charm.

For a truly historic colour scheme, pair the chalky neutral base of Crocky Road with a deep saturated hue like Balloon Ride to inject creativity and bring an air of surprise to a space. A combination that will look at home in both modern and period properties, the deep yet daring blue tone pays homage to the authentic colour palettes of the Victoria Era, but with a modern appeal.

The sense of comfort provided by the subtle green undertones of Crocky Road fosters a relaxing and unified environment, acting as the ideal backdrop to the vibrancy of an energetic shade such as Can-Can. Creating a dynamic focal point, this striking contrast and pop of red will naturally draw the eye whilst maintaining a sense of balance and warmth.

As the original claypaint, the richness of Crocky Road is a true representation of

Earthborn’s eco-friendly, ultra-matt clay recipe which champions highly breathable

paint in the home. From being virtually VOC-free, acrylic, odour and oil free and

vegan, Earthborn’s creamy paint promises superior coverage and is a certified safe

choice for all – including children and pets.
