French term or phrase: cahier descriptif de l'identité

This is about an event that will focus on a new "identité de quartier"... C'est du jargon de communication... I could use some inspiration here?
"Élaboration d'une identité fédératrice pour le Quartier des spectacles, ancrée sur la rue Sainte-Catherine et déclinable de multiples façons, dont la signalétique et le plan lumière.
Production d'un ***cahier descriptif de l’ identité***, d'un cahier des normes de l identité visuelle, et d'un cahier d'identité territoriale.

identity outline (sheet)/ identity statement

Explanation:
I would say... since you prefer to use the word "sheet" in this context. Otherwise, I would have translated it as just "identity statement"

Good luck!

Explanation:
It depends to an extent, Sophieanne, on how you are translating the other 2 deliverables.

The 3 appear to be a set, so I would try to stick with similar terminology...3 charters, 3 guidelines, whatever....
