Interior Designer Invoice Template
Sooner or later a client will look up the sofa you sourced and find the retail price. That's fine if your invoice already shows what they're paying you for: the design work, the procurement, and the project management that keeps the contractors on schedule, kept apart from the cost of the goods.
Flat fee, hourly, or a percentage of the project cost, the same idea applies. Fill in your business details and line items on the left, check the preview on the right, and download the PDF. No software, no monthly fee, no login.

Invoicing tips for interior designers
- Put your design fee (flat or hourly) on a different line from procurement. Clients should see they're paying for your eye, not your shopping.
- If you mark up furniture or materials, say so ("Net cost + 25% design fee") or charge a flat procurement fee. Either way, there's no sticker shock later.
- Invoice design work up front or in phases (concept, schematic, final), then bill procurement and installation separately as those costs come in.
Frequently asked questions
- Should I charge hourly or a flat design fee?
- Flat fees suit defined projects ("$1,500 for a bedroom design package") and let you charge for value, not just hours. Hourly works better for consultations or open-ended projects where the scope is still fuzzy.
- How do I bill for furniture and materials?
- Either cost-plus (net cost + 20-30% markup) or a flat procurement fee ($500-$1,000 depending on project size). Pick one, put it in the contract, and show it on the invoice so nobody's surprised.
