A kitchen mockup, made for presenting a mood shot. Drop in your artwork and the lighting and shadows stay as they are.
Good pick for web designers, brand designers or anyone putting together a portfolio. Quick tip: scene creators work best when you pick three or four objects and leave space; crowded scenes look like stock photos.
It’s a nice extra slide in a branding presentation, after the logo and the main applications.

What’s inside the Kitchen Mockups PSD
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Logo or artwork, placed through the smart object
- Shadows
- Background colour
- Object colour, where included
How to use the Kitchen Mockups
- Export your logo or artwork as a PNG with transparency.
- Open the PSD in Photoshop and find the smart object layer, usually named “Your Design” or “Place Here”.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Adjust the shadow so the object sits on the surface.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
One more thing: change the background colour to your brand palette; it does more for the final image than people expect.

How do I put my artwork on the scene?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Which Photoshop version do I need?
