MURAL is a visual workspace that helps you collaborate
together. Murals are giant boards to map out content.
Everything is securely saved in the cloud. Collaborate
wherever you are to keep your creative momentum.
People use murals for all kinds of team activities:
○ Design thinking & innovation
○ Product & service design
○ Planning & management
○ Marketing & branding
○ Research and journey mapping
○ Instruction & facilitation… and more!
WHAT IS MURAL?

zoom in to see the detail instead of making it larger.
