The Monthly Muse / No.2
Welcome to The Monthly Muse, a series all about mood-boards. Each month I’ll be pulling together inspiring images to create a visual composition as a creative exercise, just for fun.
I’ll explore the various aspects of design by combining colors, textures, shapes and compositions to create a visual story.
Featuring color swatches and the MM playlist with a curation of good tunes that will be updated with each entry. Thanks for being here! X
Rich browns, peachy beiges and a pop of mediterranean blue. This color palette is all about the coziness of winter. Bare trees, oversize knits, sitting in a warm coffee shop, eating a fresh baked pastry and anticipating a shift in the weather.
