Eligibility

The Black Forma Trade Program is available to qualified design professionals, including interior designers, architects, developers, set designers, and stagers in the United States and Canada.

Membership is granted to individual professionals only, not companies or entities. Each applicant must submit a completed application with professional verification, which may include a business license, trade association membership, professional website, portfolio, or comparable credentials.

Approval is at Black Forma’s sole discretion. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.

Membership

Trade membership is personal and non-transferable. Multiple individuals from the same firm may apply separately.

Black Forma reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Trade Program or any individual membership at any time, without notice.

Participation in the Trade Program does not create a reseller, dealer, or agency relationship.
