## Why interior design studios choose Formlio.

Four things change when your documents are pages your client opens.

- **Present**: Show your work at full size, film included, with scope and timeline, in your studio's look. No more months of concept work flattened into an attachment.
- **Send**: Share one link for your moodboards, renders and fees that always shows the latest revision. No more new files and emails for every correction.
- **Follow up**: See who opened the fee proposal and which rooms they read. No more sending a PDF into a black box.
- **Agree**: Let them answer your questions, choose services, approve a concept or sign on the page. No more chasing a decision over weeks of email.

## Go from first draft to your client.

Lay out moodboards and renders with your fee table and project timeline. Share it privately with your client, see what they read, and collect answers and approvals on the same page.

1. **Present: Build it from blocks, in your studio's look.** — \- Blocks for moodboards, renders, fees and timelines - Logo, fonts and colours set once - Start from a template or duplicate your last project
2. **Send: Choose who sees the renders, then share the link.** — On a private link, only the people you invite can open the document. They sign in with a code sent to their email.
3. **Follow up: Get an alert when it's opened, then see what they read.** — See who viewed it on a private link, the time spent on each section, heatmaps and session replay.
4. **Agree: Add questions, fee options, concept approvals and a signature.** — Clients answer your questions on the page. Clients switch optional services on or off and see the total update. They approve with a slide or sign on the page.

## What changes when the document is a page.

Three studios, in their own words.

> The level of customisation is a real strength. It allows you to create something that feels aligned with your own visual identity, without compromising on speed or usability. And importantly, it moves proposals away from static documents into something far more dynamic and engaging.
>
> — Ana Grigorovici, Founder, Designer & Creative Strategist, Design Bench Studio

> Formlio has changed how we present fee proposals. A PDF feels like it belongs in another era by comparison. What clients receive instead is interactive, beautifully laid out, and immediately signals that you're a business operating at the level they expect. It's the kind of first impression that lands before they've even read a word. The team are very helpful whenever I have questions, and new features keep rolling in, which tells me they're invested in making it better for the long haul.

> — Shane Cresser, Creative Director, Cresser

> The team at Formlio are so passionate about building a product specifically for creatives. They have really listened and turned feedback in features that are especially important to our day-to-day proposals. Having a responsive, web-style proposal just makes sense. It meets people where they are eg. scrolling on their phone, mid commute, making quick decisions. I’ve really loved connecting with Marianne and watching Formlio's journey unfold from the early stages.

## Common questions from interior design studios.

Fees, moodboards and image quality, confidentiality, client accounts, signatures and reuse for your concept presentations.

### How do I structure fees for an interior project?

The interactive quote takes scope sections for concept, design development and procurement, with optional services the client can switch on. Hourly, fixed or percentage fees all work as line items.

### Can I send a pre-brief or questionnaire before the fee proposal?

Yes. Add a form section to any document, with required, choice and conditional questions, inline or step by step. Clients answer on the page, and you see their answers in the document.

### Will my moodboards and renders keep their quality?

Upload high-resolution images to gallery blocks and they stay full size on desktop, tablet and phone. Group them by room or by palette.

### How long does a first proposal take?

Start from an interior design template and swap in your projects and fees, and it takes minutes rather than hours. Your logo, fonts and colours are set once.

### Is the proposal confidential?

Use a private link. Only the people you invite can open it, others can request access, and you can see who viewed it.

### Do clients need an account?

No password is needed. On a private link they sign in with a code sent to their email, the link in their invite or Google. On a public link anyone with the link can read, and they verify their email to approve or sign.

### Is the e-signature valid?

Signatures are compliant with eIDAS in the EU and ESIGN and UETA in the US. Signers verify their email first, and Formlio records their consent, the time and a fingerprint of the document.

### Can my studio reuse the same structure on every project?

Yes. Save your fee schedule, studio introduction and process as reusable blocks, then duplicate a past proposal for the next brief.

> “The work interior design studios make is considered down to the last detail. The documents that carry it to the client rarely are. We made Formlio so every one of them is as good as the work.”
