Free Interior Design Form Template
An interior design form covers contact details, the project address, permit and program notes, landlord commitments, required finishes, and the target date for permit-ready drawings.
A concept can look right in a rendering, then the contractor opens up the space and the budget jumps because the drawings never captured existing conditions, clearances, and real materials. The stakes get higher once a landlord and an inspector are involved, because a mid-permit change turns into a scramble for new approvals. Hoodline Studio — Interior Design Form collects the details an interior designer needs to produce permit-ready plans and a GC pricing set, before anyone starts drawing the wrong thing.
The form opens with a short note about commercial interior plans for permit and pricing, then moves into the specifics the client actually knows: who they are, where the suite is, what must fit, and what the space looks like as-is. The questions also pin down any landlord or broker commitments, required finishes and cleanability, and the deadline for permit-ready drawings, so the first pass at documentation matches the field. The pages sit under Zilla Slab headings in muted olive with a rose accent, which keeps the layout reading like plan-set notes instead of a mood board.

- Target date for permit-ready drawings Records the deadline the permit set needs to hit.
Commercial interior plans for permit and pricing: Introduces what the form collects and what happens after the answers come in. Your name: Captures the client contact name for the project. Project and permit details: Prompts for program needs, landlord-provided items, and the deadline. Project address (suite or unit): Records the site location the plans will reference. Target date for permit-ready drawings: Locks in the date the drawings need to be ready for review and submission. Once the form is in Plutio, the client fills it out online and the responses land in one place, so the program, constraints, and timeline don’t get split across emails and call notes. After submission, the interior designer reviews the answers and follows up with any missing details before starting the permit and pricing set.
We went from spending hours on every proposal to creating fully customized ones in under 5 minutes. That's not an exaggeration - we timed it.

Questions about this form
What should an interior design intake form ask for on a commercial project?
A commercial interior intake form usually asks for contact details, the project address, program requirements, permit needs, landlord or broker commitments, finish requirements, and the deadline for permit-ready drawings. This template collects those details in one submission so the designer can start a permit and pricing set from consistent inputs.
What information do you need to create permit-ready interior drawings?
Permit-ready interior drawings depend on the project address, the intended program, and any constraints tied to the landlord and the suite as it exists today. This form gathers program and fit-as-is notes, commitments already in place, required finishes, and a target date for the permit-ready set.
How do you avoid surprises between concept, permit, and buildout?
Surprises usually show up when existing conditions, clearances, and material requirements never get captured early enough to shape the plan set. A structured intake that records program needs, landlord commitments, and finish and cleanability requirements makes those constraints visible before the first drawing pass.
What do landlords and brokers usually need to confirm before permitting?
Landlords and brokers often set constraints around what the space includes, what they’ll deliver, and what changes they’ll approve, which can affect the permit approach and pricing. This template includes a place to document those commitments alongside the project and permit details.
Should finish and cleanability requirements be collected before pricing?
Finish and cleanability requirements can change material selections, detailing, and costs, so capturing them before pricing helps the first estimate match expectations. This form includes a specific question for required finishes and cleanability.
How do clients submit form answers and where do responses go?
Clients submit the form online, and Plutio collects the responses in one place. Nothing else has to be connected to receive the submission.
