The Brand Moodboard template is a ready-made Storyflow board for defining a brand's visual direction in one place: color, typography, logo references, imagery, textures, and tone, arranged on an infinite canvas with notes that explain the intent behind each choice.
About this template
The Brand Moodboard template turns scattered references into a clear visual direction for a brand. Instead of pinning images to a folder you never reopen, you drop logos, color swatches, type samples, photography, and competitor screenshots onto one canvas, group them into sections, and write a short note on why each piece belongs. The result is a board a client or team can read at a glance and react to before any design work starts.
It is built for brand and graphic designers, agencies, founders defining an identity, and marketers shaping a visual style. Solo creators use it to lock a look before they build. Teams use it to align stakeholders on one shared picture of the brand instead of five competing ones.
The board comes pre-arranged with sections for color palette, typography, logo and mark references, imagery and photography style, texture and pattern, and tone or keywords. Storyflow's AI assistant can read the active board to help you cluster loose references, name a direction, or draft the notes that explain it. Rearrange the blocks, swap in your own references, paste links, and invite your team to build on it.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Brand Moodboard?
A brand moodboard is a curated collection of visual references that defines the direction of a brand identity: color palette, typography, logo style, imagery, texture, and tone, with notes explaining the intent behind each choice. It aligns clients and teams on one look before any design work begins. In Storyflow you build it on an infinite canvas and share it as a link.
Who is the Brand Moodboard template for?
It is for brand and graphic designers, agencies, founders shaping a new identity, and marketers defining a visual style. Solo creators use it to lock a direction before they design, and teams use it to get stakeholders agreeing on one shared visual picture of the brand.
What is on the Brand Moodboard board?
The board is pre-arranged with sections for color palette, typography, logo and mark references, imagery and photography style, texture and pattern, and tone or keywords. You drag in your own references, paste links, add notes, and rearrange the blocks to fit the brand you are working on.
How is a brand moodboard different from a logo or style guide?
A brand moodboard captures the feeling and visual direction early, before anything is finalized. A logo and a style guide come later and lock the exact assets and rules. The moodboard is where you explore and agree on a direction so the finished identity has something to aim at.

Yes. You can open and customize the Brand Moodboard template on Storyflow's free plan in your browser, with no credit card to start. You can build the board, add references and notes, and share a view-only link. Some advanced features, such as AI image generation, are part of paid plans.
