Presenting a trade show booth? Put it on this modern a-stand mockup and the client sees the real thing, not a flat file.
Useful for retail marketers as much as for exhibitors. Quick tip: outdoor ads are read in a second or two. Big type and one image will look far better in this scene than a busy layout.
It’s also handy for student and portfolio work, when you want to show a campaign that never went live.
Good for
- A trade show booth
- A point-of-sale display
- A counter design
Mockups Design created this one and hosts the download on their own site, so you always get the latest version straight from the source.
Editable options in the Modern A-Stand Mockup PSD
Open it in Photoshop and you can change:
- Ad artwork, placed through the smart object
- Brightness to match the scene
- Glow layer for backlit scenes, where included
- Lighting and shadow layers
How to use the Modern A-Stand Mockup
- Check the smart object’s ratio first, then build the ad to match it.
- 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.
- Match the ad’s brightness to the scene with the lighting layers.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
Worth remembering: night or backlit scenes usually have a glow layer. Push it up for lightboxes, down for printed paper.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Mockups Design. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I put my artwork on the display stand?
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?
A recent Photoshop CC version is best. Older versions can open the file but sometimes have trouble with smart objects and effects.
What ratio should my artwork be?
Open the smart object and check its canvas; design to that ratio. Most outdoor mockups use common print ratios, but it varies from file to file.
Why does the download open another website?
We list free files from designers around the web and link to the original page, so Mockups Design gets the visit and you get the file exactly as they published it.
