SET THE MOOD WITH

Kingdom Interiors

When it comes to planning projects, interior designers have long been using
mood boards as a way of collating ideas and presenting ideas to clients.
However, now you can create your own thanks to Kingdom Interiors.

Floral Fancy

Kingdom Interiors, the online market leader for
designer fabrics and wallpapers in the UK, has
upgraded the mood board function on its site,
allowing users to create inspirational collages
using their favourite products.
Mood boards allow designers to experiment with
different style combinations of colour, pattern,
texture and shape, to determine whether products
will complement each other in the home.
Interior designers recommend starting with a
theme, such as a colour or particular trend, and
picking one thing you definitely want to include.
This item could be fantastic wallpaper for a feature
wall, or a statement piece of furniture. Whatever
it may be, you can build around the must-have
item, creating a board that both complements
and emphasises the original piece, whilst providing
a rooted reminder to prevent you from getting
carried away.

Earn Your Stripes

Visitors to www.kingdominteriors.co.uk can
browse the site’s extensive selection of fabrics,
wallpapers, paint, trimmings, gifts and
accessories, with the opportunity to filter results
based on your theme's colours and patterns.
Once you have found an item to include, you
can simply select the ‘add to moodboard’ button,
and then drag it into place. The tool also allows
you to save your designs to an account, load an
earlier board, and print them out too.
Anne Fulford, managing director of Kingdom
Interiors, said: “Moodboards are a fantastic way
to keep an archive of your favourite pieces and
collate them in one place, whether you intend to
use designs for your next project or just like being
creative. The tool has proved to be quite popular
already, and we hope that more and more people
will get the bug for designing their own boards.

“We have also recently updated the software
enabling it to be used on smartphones and tablets
too, so users have the option to update boards
on the go, whenever inspiration strikes.”
