6 new mood boards for color and material inspiration

Design Min.

Colors, samples, and materials affect our well-being and, ultimately, our productivity in the office too. To have an impact, a coordinated furnishing concept needs to respond to all sorts of requirements. Just like the Human-Centered Workplace, which focuses on people’s needs.

We developed our mood boards to inspire you creatives when designing workplaces like those. Their purpose is to help you select colors and materials and offer a design toolbox for appealingly matched environments.

Pure – playfully fresh

Welcome to Pure’s Scandinavian color palette. It encompasses the hues of a sandy beach, the grey-blue ocean, green carpets of moss, and gray stone shades. These are paired with playful pops of color in delicate blueberry purple and pink.

  • Atmosphere: A natural, tranquil, and fresh appeal
  • Basic colors: Light gray, cream
  • Accent colors: Mauve, mossy green, icy blue

Earth – natural fibers, wood, and warmth

The Earth color palette suggests warmth and a celebration of nature. Fluid-organic forms and high-quality wood elements blend in with the ecological design concept. The warm colors symbolize a celebration of nature and awaken associations with a walk in the forest full of leaves and ripe mushrooms in the fall. 

  • Atmosphere: Warmth, organic elements, and a celebration of nature
  • Basic colors: Sand, dark brown
  • Accent colors: Golden yellow, copper, and dusky pink

With woody and earthy hues that allude to warmth and nature, McConaghy Properties’ premises in Brisbane, Australia, are all about the Earth color concept.

Sophisticated – craftsmanship meets cutting-edge technology

  • Basic colors: Light gray, gray-beige, warm, dark brown
  • Accent colors: Honey, gray-blue, icy blue

The Sophisticated mood board’s colors are reflected tastefully in the interiors at Amber Beverage Group. The interior design’s warm brown tones are inspired by Baltic scenery and reminiscent of bark and amber. They stand for tradition and generate a motivating atmosphere to work in.

Delicate – understated elegance

With its understated colors and natural textures, Delicate exudes traditional elegance, underscored by gleaming, copper-colored accessories.

  • Atmosphere: Poise, elegance, assurance
  • Basic colors: Cream, taupe, light gray, gray-brown
  • Accent colors: Dark emerald green, brass, sand

The Delicate color combinations feature in the office building belonging to luxury goods company Richemont in Amsterdam. The natural beige tones of the stylish interior are soothing in the conference rooms and highlight the organic design idiom of the furniture and lights.
