Creating a Design Story Board

The design story board guides in making color, style and design choices for your new home.

Remember creating collages in art class as a kid?  The conglomeration of words, images and elements selected and assembled became works of art that told a story of sorts.

Designers utilize the same concept to develop a new design plan and illustrate their ideas and concepts to their clients, and it’s called the design story board. You can use this same creative exercise to discover your design style, decorate a room or design your new home.
