MOODBOARD

The term “mood board” comes from the English and consists of “mood” (in German: “Stimmung”) and “board” (in German: “Tafel”) together. The term is used for collages composed of ideas, images, photos, text and/or illustrations. They serve the visual description of mood pictures, which cannot always be put into words. A mood board helps convey a specific impression of the idea, design, or language of a project or brand.
