What Happens After the Mood Board? Turning Concepts into Real Selections

You’ve created your mood board — colours, textures, and inspiration are flowing. But what comes next? Turning that vision into actual, build-ready selections is where the real magic (and decision-making!) begins. Here’s how the design vision gets translated into reality, step by step.

1. Mood Board as the Starting Point

• Helps define style direction and colour story

• Sets the tone for all future decisions

  
  

🧱 2. Breaking It Down by Zones

• Kitchen, bathroom, laundry, etc. — we extract themes for each

• Grouping materials for flow and continuity

  
  

🪞 3. Confirming Finishes

• Actual product selections: cabinetry, benchtops, tiles, tapware

• Visiting showrooms or using samples

  
  

📐 4. Layering in Fixtures and Fittings

• Matching your mood board vision to real items

• Ensuring product availability and budget fit

  
  

🧾 5. Documentation for the Builder

• Compiling selections schedule and visual guides

• How I help clients keep everything builder-ready

Your mood board is more than just pretty pictures — it’s a plan in disguise. And with the right process, we turn those ideas into real, liveable selections that align perfectly with your build and your lifestyle.
