Guðbjörg

Let’s co-create a Miro board concept tailored for your bilingual, metaphor-rich team communication resource. This layout is designed to be interactive, visually engaging, and workshop-ready:

Would you like help drafting the Miro board structure in Icelandic, or designing metaphor cards to embed directly into the board? I can also help you create a printable version for hybrid retreats.

Guides can only be added or managed while editing a design, not from the Home page. To use guides, first open a design (like a presentation, social media post, website, video, or print design). Then:

  1. From the top menu, select File.
  2. Select View settings to show, add, clear, or lock guides.

Guides help you align and space elements in your design. You can only add, lock, or unlock individual guides on a computer.
