Size

Quick answer: a brand board is one page that shows your brand at a glance: your logo or name, 3 to 5 colors with their codes, two fonts and a few photos that set the mood. Type your name, tagline and colors above, pick a font pair, add your logo and photos, and download the board as a pin, a 16:9 slide or a page to print. Every color also tells you whether white or black text reads on it.

How to use it

  1. Type your brand name and tagline. Without a logo, the name is drawn in your title font.
  2. Type your colors as HEX codes, or use Add a color. No palette yet? Our color palette from image tool pulls one from a photo you love.
  3. Pick a font pair for titles and text. There are fifteen, in five moods, and you can see each on a pin with our font pairing tool.
  4. Add your logo and up to three photos. They are drawn on your device and never uploaded, so the link you copy keeps your words, colors and fonts but never your pictures.
  5. Choose a size and download it: a 1000×1500 pin, a 1920×1080 slide, or a Letter or A4 page to print. Copy the color codes gives you the HEX and RGB of every color.

What goes on a brand board

  • The logo, or the name in your title font. This is how people will recognize you.
  • The palette. Three to five colors is enough to be recognizable without being hard to use. Write the codes on the board, because a designer, a printer or a VA needs the exact HEX, not "a warm brown".
  • Two fonts: one with character for titles and a plain one for everything else. That is the same rule a good pin follows.
  • A few photos that show the mood: the light, the textures and the kind of scene your brand lives in.

A brand board is not a full set of brand guidelines. Guidelines run to many pages, with logo spacing, tone of voice and do's and don'ts. The board is the one-page summary you pin, send to a collaborator or keep beside your desk.

Which text reads on your colors

Each color in the table under the board is checked against the W3C's contrast rule (WCAG 2.2). Normal text needs a ratio of at least 4.5:1 for level AA, and large text (18 point, or 14 point bold) needs 3:1. The tool tries white and near-black text on every color and tells you which one reads, and how well. Some colors pass for neither: the sample sage green, #6B7F6A, gives 4.31:1 with white text and 4.21:1 with black. It is fine behind a big title but not behind small print. Knowing that before you make a hundred pins saves a redesign. Our guide to colors that work on Pinterest pins covers choosing them.

The sizes

  • Pin, 1000×1500: the 2:3 shape Pinterest recommends for a standard pin, to pin your brand board to a branding or client board.
  • Slide, 1920×1080: for a client presentation or the first slide of a brand deck.
  • Print, Letter (1700×2200) or A4 (1654×2339): each is 200 pixels per inch at the paper's size, which is sharp enough for a desk reference or a client folder.

FAQ

What is a brand board?
A one-page visual summary of a brand: its logo or name, its color palette with the codes, its fonts and a few mood photos. You share it with anyone who designs for you, so everything they make looks like the same brand.
How many colors should a brand board have?
Three to five. One or two light neutrals for backgrounds, one or two main colors, and an accent covers almost everything. This maker holds up to five, and it tells you which text reads on each one.
What is the difference between a brand board and brand guidelines?
A brand board is one page that shows the brand. Brand guidelines are a longer document with the rules: logo spacing, what not to do, tone of voice and examples. Most small businesses and bloggers start with the board.
Can I make a brand board for a client?
Yes. Type the client's name, colors and fonts, add their logo, and download the board as a slide for the presentation or as a pin for your portfolio board. The copied link reopens it with everything except the pictures.
Are my logo and photos uploaded?
No. They are drawn on a canvas in your browser and stay on your device. The link you copy keeps the name, tagline, colors, fonts and size only.
