The Official Blog of SampleBoard.com

Please note this blog has moved to http://sampleboard.wordpress.com/ - the Official Blog of SampleBoard.com – the digital moodboard editor for the creative industries (interior design, fashion, graphic and web, wedding planning and landscaping).

Here you can browse moodboards by design discipline created by a global community of independent designers and creatives.

Our blog highlights inspirational moodboard designs and top members from the SampleBoard community. You will also find articles on all things design and tips and hints on how to create professional moodboards of your own…

All moodboards featured on our blog have been created by the SampleBoard community using the web editor.

Get started on SampleBoard today by creating your own moodboards and do your bit to power the world’s creativity.



SampleBoard.com presents a new and innovative way to create and present your ideas and vision by using the web-based interactive editor. It enables designers from different design disciplines (graphic, web, interiors, landscape, fashion and wedding planning) and backgrounds to collaborate on design projects, share their creative portfolio online and get exposure for business opportunities through the public design directory.

The web editor allows you to quickly and easily pull together design trends, colour schemes, textures and products via a convenient drag-and-drop function, using the rich editing toolset with over 30,000 product images from the library or your own images uploaded onto the system from your personal profile.
With two different membership options to choose from you can:
  • Import photos from Flickr and Picasa, as well as upload your own images
  • Create and manage project folders for all your moodboards stored online
  • Export to Slideshare.net as well as Microsoft Word
  • Share your moodboard on Facebook and Twitter in one easy click
  • Email your moodboard directly to a client or lecturer
  • Save your moodboard as a PNG or PDF to your computer
  • Print A3 and A4 moodboards in high resolution
  • Create and manage private groups for projects, discussions or fun
  • Access the design directory and supplier database for contacts
  • Showcase your portfolio on SampleBoard for possible creative business opportunities
Being online, SampleBoard knows no boundaries as your moodboard can be viewed, saved and emailed anywhere for you and your client’s convenience.



Creating moodboards and sampleboards offline using the traditional method, and online using photo-editing software like Photoshop and Coral Draw, is useful. SampleBoard.com offers a faster, simpler, easier platform to help you create a digital moodboard – combined with the benefits of the digital age of speed, efficiency, quick turn-around and global availability. No more time wasting driving the town dead for a scrap of cloth! A digital ‘picture’ can do it all for you now, from the comfort of your own creative space.
