We used custom CSS and Javascript to pack all kinds of creative movement and animation into a one-page website, including moving gradient text, fixed scrolling, dancing buttons, hover effects, and scroll-based animations.")

Lynne began seriously writing poetry at age 75. Having published many of her works before her 80th birthday, she was ready to create a website to hold her writing and share it with her readers.
We actually created two blogs, one for Lynne’s own poetry and another for selected poems by other authors that she admires. We worked together to create a simple but robust website in just a couple of weeks.
Feedback from Lynne:
“Well, it’s love at first sight! Really, you did an amazing job on this. I love the colors, the layout of text, the funky old typewriter, the way the poems are presented. Everything! Oh my god, what joy the site gives me! It’s beautiful!”")

Chris needed an e-commerce store which would double as an artist's portfolio. He came to me with a broken site on Wordpress and wanted to rebuild it with all the bells and whistles on Squarespace. We kept Chris's artwork the star of the show but integrated tons of custom code to make his store look way more professional, including no cropping of his prints, subtle drop shadows, and custom lightbox effects when each image is clicked open. Then we implemented some code to streamline his checkout process and he's been selling his art ever since.")

This site is all css animations. As far as content, all they wanted was their company title, worldwide locations, and a contact form. But they wanted all the bells and whistles with design so we jazzed everything up with some out-of-this-world coded animations.")

Jonelle first came to me with a photograph of a blanket she really liked the colors of, and her website color palette was born. She needed a website she could update herself as a way to market her nutrition and fitness coaching programs. We built out a fully functioning e-commerce store where visitors can easily purchase programs and get in touch, and we created some subtle animations using custom code and tied it all up with Janelle’s own photography.")

SiteVision Pro already had a Squarespace website for their SaaS product, but they wanted to revamp their Home page to brighten up the color scheme, code in some animation, and be more competitive overall in their industry.
We worked together to build in some auto-playing video content, motion-rich features including time-based and interactive scroll-based animations, dynamic hero content, contact forms, background color changes and gradients, an explainer video, and bold, consistent CTAs that give this home page experience a major upgrade with a much brighter, fresher feel.")

This project started out as a sales page but it soon grew into a full rebrand and custom website build! She wanted a bright, golden color scheme with touches of India, some of the custom line drawings, and tons of colors!
Customizations included:
Gradients EVERYWHERE to give a shimmery, mystical effect:
• Gradient section backgrounds

• Gradient buttons that change on hover
Integrations:
• Elfsight widget to display her Google Reviews
• Custom lead magnet email capture integrated with Kit mailing list
Animations using Squarekicker and custom CSS:
• Fixed scrolling image backgrounds
• Automatic side-scrolling sections on her long sales page

Sharon's feedback:

Melissa came to me with a decade-old DIY Squarespace website still running on Squarespace 7.0 and ready for a major overhaul.
The first order at hand was structure and organization, so we made some significant changes to site map and user flow to make the client journey intentional, strategic, and easy to navigate.
Once we had the strategy and structure nailed down we could really get creative with the styles. We're talking gradient colors, custom fonts, image extraction, animations, custom code, and more.
Customizations:
Since this was going to be a BIG reveal coinciding with Country Flow Yoga’s 10th anniversary, we wanted huge wow factor.
• Flat colors —> shimmery gradients
• Static content —> dynamic scroll-based animations
• Interactive hover effects and fixed scrolling image backgrounds
• Animated custom icon created from a mural on her wall
Integrations:
• booking with Mindbody, the industry standard for yoga studios")

Chat Forbes is a prolific artist who needed a Squarespace e-commerce website to showcase and sell his fine art prints.
Chat had a few customizations in mind, including a categorized shop, separate galleries in a dropdown, custom three-lined titles that connect gallery to store to product purchase page, and a ton of variants for paper, finishes, sizes, and framing, often including the original artwork for sale!
We set up international and domestic shipping and even built in a custom “refresh options” button for each product when Squarespace’s native variant selector went on the fritz, just reinforcing that there’s a solution for everything (and there are usually a few).
Feedback from Chat: \"I have to say your work is great, love how things look and are interrelated from your video.\"")

Ethan rescued 25 dogs from a kennel that was closing and built a humane dogsledding facility. We wanted to make this a super playful and fun site, including:
• Pro video content and drone footage
• Playful animated hover effects on buttons and dog images
• Fixed scrolling image backgrounds
• Custom dropdown bios for each dog to keep things clean
• Subtle but playful scroll-based animations
Ethan always prioritizes the dogs, so the star of the website is the Team page with individual dog bios for each pup (and quite possibly the cutest page to ever live on a website).")

Luckily, Saundra had some amazing photography, so we crafted a fun, bright website with some cute hover effects on her calendar to indicate availability through animation. Her available days subtly grow on hover while her off-days shake. The result is exactly what she needed.")

We created a ton of animation including scroll and hover effects to make this site loads of fun.")
