Moodboards are widely used by creatives. They offer the possibility of determining a visual identity and materializing an idea.

In the “Library” section, we find all the images we used in our moodboards. If you are looking for a specific photo, just enter its name in the search bar, sort them according to their date of addition or filter them according to their colors. This avoids spending long minutes digging through its image library.
For their part, the moodboards are all stored in the “Boards” section. To start a new creation, click on the “Studio” tab. This is where you can give free rein to your creativity. To import photos, you have to drag and drop them on the interface, or click on the “+” button. Once all the photos have been added, you should choose a layout so that the moodboard is created automatically. “Cluster” will arrange images haphazardly, “Rows” as rows and “Columns”, as the name suggests, as columns.
Visualist is a collaborative tool. Thanks to “Stickies”, a collaborator can add a comment to a specific place on the moodboard. In this way, the author of the creation can make the requested changes, and share the content with other people by copying the link. Note that trend boards can be exported or copied as a PNG, for example on a presentation slide.
In parallel, Visualist offers to create a color palette, to resize an image in a few clicks, or to erase the background. The goal is to allow everyone to design an aesthetically pleasing moodboard.
