Inspirations are the sparks that ignite all creative work. They are derived from a variety of sources including global presentations, the Internet, influencers, trend forecasts, meetings with vendors, their showrooms, trade fair booths, and even the streets themselves. These sources fuel the creativity of designers, transforming initial sparks of inspiration into concrete product designs throughout the design process.

To streamline this creative influx, SilkPLM introduces the SilkCREO module. This tool is designed to meticulously collect inspirations, organise them, and integrate them with planned mood boards.
