More than a palette
What makes an architectural mood?
Colour is only a starting point. A low ceiling can make a garden feel brighter; a courtyard can connect rooms without removing the distance between them. Look for a relationship you want to understand, then collect the photographs that explain it.
Start with one board, read the notes, and compare the original projects. The examples are public to browse. An account is only needed when you want to save designs and build your own collections.
