![]() We rarely use a white board for our mood boards, because you’re losing a surface that’s hugely helpful in shaping your scheme. ![]() We opted for putting it on the Hebden table’s legs and then hinting at the same tone in desk accessories, lamp shades and picture frames. White needed to remain one of the feature colours along with the leather hues, so we added dashes of Ink to our moodboard to find the right balance, and then used that to help us figure out where in the room in would feature best. We looked on those to not only narrow down the choices of desk chair that we were looking at (another moodboard plus – it gives you direction so you don’t end up falling down the furniture rabbit hole) but to bring in our other key colour – Ink. Leather desk chair settled on, we drew inspiration from its depth of tone and took that to the floorboards, keeping the original paler oak to the Hebden desktop and through to the flashes of oak in the adjoining room, such as on the Chawton’s oak ladder and shelving.Īlso featured on the moodboard were tears from magazines where we’d seen chair shapes we were drawn to as well as the colour groupings of white, dark brown and golden brown, and navy blue. This decision led to us realising that we liked the depth of tone the leather was bringing, which is how the dark-stained wooden floor came about. That’s one of the beauties of a moodboard it lets you get a feel for scale and proportion. As we played with the sizes of leather swatch however, we came to the conclusion that we wanted the leather aspect to be kept small because it quickly seemed to take over. This board began with a pale oak backdrop onto which we overlaid a primary colour of white and accents of aged leather and brass.
