Provocative, Progressive, Intense

Mood Board

Mood boards are curated groups of images that visualize a vibe. This is the second step in narrowing down a look & feel to effectively convey your brand message.

Brands in this category tend to be very expressive, showing strength and fortitude as naturally as breathing. Their intensity can serve as a rallying force, guiding the emotions and actions of a crowd towards a common goal.

Portraying boldness often requires a heavy hand to draw attention. Fonts and colors will tend to be bright or dark. Lines are bold or have high contrast between thick and thin, and shapes are sharp-edged and large. Every bit of a page will tend to be used for maximum impact.

Is this the right feel for your brand?

The images below show how various companies have used color, type, icons, photos, illustrations and textures together to translate their personality into a unique look and feel. As you consider your company’s presence, do these samples achieve the vibe you’re after?

Please note: The images posted here are subject to copyrights owned by the individuals or entities who created them. They are intended for educational purposes, and not to be used for your brand or for any other personal or commercial use.

TIP: Audiences with an independent streak are difficult to convince. They will tend to be skeptical and do things on their own time. Be careful not to pander to them, oversell them or push them to take action. They tend to be interested in high quality, high value offerings and ignore what could be perceived as a waste of time. The more transparent you are, and the more room you give them, the happier they will be.

Powerful, Serious, Balanced

Mood Board

Mood boards are curated groups of images that visualize a vibe. This is the second step in narrowing down a look & feel to effectively convey your brand message.

Expertise is difficult to imitate—authority even moreso. These brands aspire to find answers that have evaded all others, to provide resolution for difficult situations, or to correct what hadn’t been done right the first time. They present a reasonable and responsible image, referencing data and drawing on wisdom gained from years of experience and keen observations.

Brands with this calm, deliberate approach are best represented by an equally serene visual identity and tone of voice. Neutral or classic colors, simple layouts, crisp fonts, and minimal decoration create a feeling of balance and trustworthiness.

Sexy, Sleek, High End

Mood Board

Mood boards are curated groups of images that visualize a vibe. This is the second step in narrowing down a look & feel to effectively convey your brand message.

Nothing is more attractive than a confident, independent spirit. Brands with this vibe make their own rules, and often end up defining categories due to their innate magnetism and alluring sense of perfection. Tenacious and seductive, these brands have the ability to persuade with pleasure, using their “it” factor to draw key partners that enhance their offerings even further. It’s not uncommon for these brands to be driven by an individual founder with similar qualities.

Audiences drawn to these brands want to feel attractive themselves—to experience even a hint of what they perceive as the highest echelon in quality and experience. Brands centered around passion tend to use high contrast fonts and images, dramatic photography with stark lighting and serious expressions. A sense of mystery, intrigue and luxury is ever-present, driving the audience’s pursuit of that something more they don’t yet have and desperately want.

Tough, Rugged, Intentional

Mood Board

Mood boards are curated groups of images that visualize a vibe. This is the second step in narrowing down a look & feel to effectively convey your brand message.

The most notable characteristic of brands and audiences that belong on this mood board is a sense of independence. This is the board for DIYers, lone wolfs, MacGyvers and, in more extreme cases, hermits and conspiracy theorists. Members of this group have a highly developed intuition and innate inner strength that keep them laser focused on the task at hand. This combination gives them what others might perceive as a sixth sense. They may be described as extraordinarily skilled, brave, and born to lead. They are practical, disciplined, uninterested in praise, and prefer to live life unimpeded by restrictions placed on them by others.

Brands with this vibe can be best expressed through clean, simple layouts, crisp fonts, and minimal decoration. Depending on other characteristics of the brand personality, the look and feel could lean towards a quirky, humorous tone, a more technical, Spartan existence, an upscale Bond-like sophistication, or an even-keel, bread-and-butter, comforting simplicity.
