What tools can be used to create a mood board?

• A. Digital software like Word or PowerPoint
• B. Physical materials like paper or card
• C. Both digital software and physical materials
• D. None of the above

Answer: (C)

Mood boards are about gathering and arranging visual ideas to convey a vibe or direction. You can do this with digital tools—dragging in images, colors, and text to arrange on a page or slide, then editing and sharing easily. You can also build them with physical materials—cutouts, photos, fabric swatches, and other tangible items pinned or glued onto a board. Since both approaches help achieve the same goal of presenting a cohesive look or feel, the best answer is that you can use either digital software or physical materials. In practice, many designers combine both to get the flexibility of digital editing and the tactile inspiration of physical materials.
