A new icon has arrived. Eagle Roofing Products’ pick for the 2025 Color of the Year is Santa Cruz Blend, a timeless fusion of mocha-inspired hues that is perfect for any residential or commercial space. This color balances a rich, warm palette that evokes nature and well-being with a classic and elegant style that pairs well with a variety of architectural designs. If your customers are looking to build a beautiful sanctuary that also has the ultimate sense of security, roofing with Santa Cruz Blend is the way to go.

Why we love it

A dynamic blend of tan, reddish brown and brown, it’s hard not to love this timeless colorway which pays homage to the deep, rich tones found in nature while providing a sophisticated and elegant, yet warm and welcoming ambiance. A roof that will never go out of style, Santa Cruz Blend is a balanced and versatile color blend capable of grounding any space while opening a world of possibilities to easily incorporate it into any style or color scheme.

Lissette Pamplona, Eagle Roofing Product’s director of marketing explained, “In an era where warm neutrals are making a strong comeback, we couldn't help but crush on the color brown. It gives off a vibe that gray and black can't compete with; drawing in the soothing aspects of nature to help us create a serene oasis where we can retreat and rejuvenate. That is why we chose Santa Cruz Blend as our 2025 Color of the Year. This gorgeous colorway is the perfect harmony of varying tones of brown that encapsulates our desire for peace and comfort while being robust enough to complement a plethora of creative design choices for a dream exterior that exudes elegance and appeal.”

Reflecting design trends

Shifting away from dated grays and cool palettes, recent design trends aim to create cozy but luxe sanctuaries that define comfort, peace, security and understated elegance. This mindset is ever-present in the 2025 Color of the Year announcements from world-renowned Pantone to the most popular and influential paint manufacturers. Their chosen shades identify in one way or another with these familiar and desired qualities – as does Santa Cruz Blend.

The browns in our concrete roof tile create a naturally warm aesthetic that captures feelings of strength, tranquility and connection. It is an ideal companion to this year’s featured colors and adaptable enough to be paired with vibrant hues, dark or muted earthy shades, as well as exterior elements consisting of stone cladding, wood stains, metal and mix brown toned outdoor furniture and decor.

Eye-catching and inviting, a Santa Cruz Blend concrete tile roof will elevate your space and beautifully enhance your overall curb appeal.
