Using a Mood Board To Guide Your Home Renovation

But where does one begin, and how do you create a cohesive look room to room?
It all depends on your personal taste, desired outcome, and budget.
With Style Sourcebook, you can browse by room, style, or brand, and you can even explore boards crafted by other aspiring and like-minded designers.

We’ve taken a minimalist approach to this kitchen with black and white details throughout. Monochrome settings are far from retro when paired with our premium Matte Black tapware. Marble benchtops paired with porcelain kit-kat tiles add texture, whilst a Lavello stainless steel kitchen sink brushed in gunmetal gives the island bench a modern edge. See our minimalist Matte Black kitchen mood board below:

Laundry spaces are anything but washed-out when muted neutrals are enhanced with Tiger Bronze tapware.
This brushed-gold finish carries a warmth and charm that combines beautifully with natural textures like rattan.
Don’t be afraid to infuse a little colour and personality into these settings with a pairing of indoor plants and weaved laundry baskets. In addition, utilise the power that natural light brings, to accentuate either cool or warm-toned palettes. See how we bring a laundry space to life with our Tiger Bronze mood board:

Known for its celebratory status, Champagne adds indulgence and luxury among any setting. With its adaptability and underlying elegance, the rise of rose gold is upon us more than ever.
An unmistakable choice, Meir’s Champagne range melds effortlessly throughout the bathroom’s entirety. This rose gold finish brings extravagance to brass, elevating every shower and wet zone in its wake.
Complement this finish with rounded mirrors and wooden elements or create a cool contrast with stone and neutral-toned tiles.
