Now you're probably thinking, why should I have one like that, and how should I put one like that together? But it's the simplest thing in the world. I promise. Spend a few days / weeks collecting newspaper clippings, fabric samples you like, a piece of stone maybe, picked color samples, a leaf from the garden maybe? A moodboard is a vision and a tool for you to find the right one. Finding your style. Start by taking a look at the "How to choose materials" tab.
YOUR FIRST MOODBOARD
When you make a moodboard, collect all your newspaper clippings, material samples, gadgets and whatever it may be.
Lay everything on a sheet of paper or a piece of wood. mix and move around. Feel for the time being, and constantly ask the question "is this me" ?. When it is ready, glue / staple everything, and go to bed.
Tomorrow you take another look at your moodboard.
DAY 2 WITH YOUR MOODBOARD
Have you slept on it now? You always see things with new eyes when you sleep on it. Now it's time to find the red threads. What shapes, colors, materials are consistent? Write them down and sit down and go through them.
The important thing is to find your style in this, what is it that stands out, and then take it to step 3 in working with a moodboard.
STEP 3 SAVE AND USE
Now that you have the basics, take a picture on your moodboard and save it on your smartphone. Then you always have it with you when you are out hunting. Also in high resolution so you can easily zoom in and see materials and colors that you used in your moodboard.
The important thing now is to always follow your moodboard when shopping for interior design etc. It will be cheaper in the long run and you will not have a lot of "wrong purchases" which you will then have to fill the garage with.
DIGITAL
Make moodboard in an app or via a website. Pintrest is a really good platform where you can pin down everything you find online, sort them into different rooms, and then collect the pictures and print.
Or make a collage on your phone. Today there are tons of apps for mood boards and vision boards.
Just go for it and get started!
