How to make a mood board in four steps

  1. Define the feeling. Write two or three words that describe the mood in a note at the top.
  2. Gather references. Drag photos from your computer. Keep only the ones that match the words you wrote.
  3. Extract the palette. Use the palette extractor on your strongest image and keep five colors.
  4. Add the practical side. A short checklist of vendors or deliverables turns inspiration into a plan.
