Squarespace for architecture practices

Squarespace can handle 2 of the 4 website jobs architecture practices usually need, using its own features. Still to check before you commit: sharing drawings with clients; design and process guides.

What Squarespace handles for architecture practices

Project galleries with the brief and outcome. Portfolio pages group work into project pages, up to 60 projects per portfolio page.

Project enquiries with site and brief details. Form blocks take custom fields, including a file upload for photos.

What to check before choosing Squarespace

Sharing drawings with clients. Member Sites gate pages for signed-in members, but per-client files and progress need another tool.

Design and process guides. Delivering a free guide after sign-up needs checking against how the file and email are sent.

Features outside Squarespace's blocks need code injection or a third-party service.

Only part of the site exports if you move later.

Running a Squarespace site

All Squarespace plans include managed hosting.

Custom code can be added through code injection on plans that include it.

Extra features come from built-in blocks and linked services such as Acuity Scheduling and OpenTable.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you work on an existing Squarespace site?

Yes. We customise and improve existing Squarespace sites. If your site needs more than Squarespace offers, we recommend a platform that fits and plan the move.

The export is a WordPress-format file covering layout pages, one blog and some blocks; store, portfolio and other page types are left out. Any move should map every old address to its new page with permanent redirects.[8][9]
