Moodboards

A moodboard is a collection of images, words, fonts and colors that as a collection, are meant to evoke a feeling from the person that views them. If you're like most people outside of the design industry, you might not have heard of mood boards, but I am sure you made a collage at some point in your youth... 

Moodboards can be created in a lot of different ways.
