Am a keen follower of Microsoft's SharePoint Blog and proud to provide this direct from the Microsoft Tech Community:
The SharePoint brand center introduces a central location for your organization to manage and create brand assets for Microsoft 365. The new Brand center brings together the power of your organization asset libraries and your organization’s brand assets to create and manage product application of your brand into Microsoft 365 products.
Our new SharePoint brand center provides an easy-to-use location for your brand managers (individuals responsible for your organizations brand) to create and manage from a single location. While today’s brand center is primarily focused on SharePoint and Viva Connections, we are excited to be working with multiple teams across Microsoft 365 to integrate their services for organization brand with the brand center and will share a bit more on this topic in this document.
Features and capabilities mentioned in this blog post, are demonstrated in the following video with Cathy Dew (Microsoft) and Vesa Juvonen (Microsoft).
Manage your organization’s brand assets
The Brand center is setup to allow easy management of your organization assets that will be available across Microsoft 365 in one location while also providing a location to create product specific brand application scenarios. The first of these organization assets to be supported in the brand center are brand fonts and brand colors.
Brand fonts
Manage your organization’s brand fonts using the brand fonts library in the SharePoint brand center. As a brand manager uploads your font files into the brand fonts library you will be able to manage which fonts are available in picker experiences. Fonts can be used to define and showcase your brand’s expression.
Brand colors
Manage your organization’s brand colors using the brand color list in the SharePoint brand center. As a brand manager, you can create a list of your brand colors that will be available for picker experiences. Brand colors can be utilized to customize and add personality to your content and experiences.

Brand images
Images and logos can provide the context, definition, and identity of your content to align with your brand. By utilizing Organization Assets Libraries brand managers can provide the images to help anyone in their organization create content that will reflect the values and beliefs of their brand.

SharePoint and Viva Connections Branding
Font packages
Once you have uploaded your organizations brand fonts into the SharePoint brand center, you will be able to create a font package that can later be applied to your SharePoint sites and Viva Connections desktop experiences. A font package contains the configuration of how you want your fonts to be utilized within your content.
Microsoft has provided a set of 8 font packages that can be used without uploading custom fonts into the Brand center to transform your sites and experiences.
You can include 2 font families into your font package and then select 4 font styles to assign to the font package slots. Headline, title, content, and interactive will determine which fonts and styles are used in your content.
SharePoint includes custom font support for the following areas (September 2024):
| Site header – site title | Quick links web part | Hero web part | All web part titles (From Microsoft) | Link web part |
| Hub header – hub title | Button web part | Sites web part | Countdown timer web part | Organization chart web part |
| Navigation (hub and site) – links and labels | Dashboard for Viva Connections | People web part | Events web part | Site activity web part |
News web part | Image web part | Call to action web part | Highlighted content web part | Weather web part |
| Page title region | Section heading | Text web part (RTE) | Image gallery web part | World clock web part |
Viva Connections includes custom font support for the following areas:
| Welcome/Greeting text | Section headings | Dashboard cards Level 1 | Resources |
You can also utilize custom fonts in your custom solutions using SharePoint Framework.

Themes
Using color can transform the look of your sites and experiences and we are excited to introduce a new way to create and manage themes within the SharePoint brand center. You can use this new tool to create your organization’s themes without needing PowerShell. Any existing themes created in your tenant via PowerShell will remain available and manageable with PowerShell.
Creating themes in the SharePoint brand center will make these themes available for your organization to use in the Change the look experience.
