Commissioning artwork: a simple brief template for agencies, hotels & cultural orgs

A good brief makes collaboration easy. If you’re commissioning artwork, here’s a simple template you can copy/paste.

Commission brief template

• Project type (mural, illustration, pattern, installation)

• Where it will live (space, product, publication)

• Audience and intent (what should it make people feel/do?)

• Dimensions / formats needed

• Timeline and key dates

• Budget range

• Usage (where it will be used, for how long, and in which territories)

• Any references (links, moodboards, brand guidelines)

What you’ll receive

A clear proposal with scope, milestones, and usage terms – plus sketches before anything is finalized.
