Interior designer, TV presenter, podcast host and House Beautiful columnist, Sophie Robinson, has created the ultimate interior design course to help homeowners achieve vibrant, original and colourful homes. In our new monthly series, we will be sharing an exclusive lesson from inside her course, starting with how to create a moodboard.
You will likely recognise Sophie from Dream Home Makeovers with Sophie Robinson on Channel 5 or on Alan Carr’s Interior Design Masters where she puts her 25+ years in the industry to good use judging the best emerging design talent. If you follow her on Instagram, you'll know that she is currently renovating her dream home in the countryside, and she shares her ideas and inspiration in a monthly House Beautiful column (grab your July issue to read about Sophie's approach to choosing and using art).
Another string to Sophie's bow are the seven online courses that navigate the world of interior design with ease, taking you from the earliest inspiration stage, through to colour pairing, choosing pattern, shopping, planning and creating a space you truly love.
Lesson one in our new series explains how to create a moodboard, which is a vital yet often overlooked step in designing a new space. Whilst we're all pretty clued up with Pinterest and Instagram and can find homes and ideas we love, identifying individual elements that will work for you and putting them together in a cohesive plan is more challenging.
Watch the video above for all the tips and tricks, and sign up to Sophie's full online course, Be your own interior designer.
