Introducing Squarespace Version 6

It's true! Squarespace is busy cooking-up the next version of the platform, and from what little I know about it, it's going to be amazing. 

I've already been fielding client questions— including the following:

• Will our current site work in V6? (also Will our site break when V6 launches?)
• What are the features in V6?
• When will V6 launch?

For now, I can answer only the first question. I'm going to say without hesitation— YES. When Version 6 launches, your original site built on Version 5 will still work, and you will be able to still maintain it. 

The rest of the answers at this time are a mystery, but believe me when I tell you, I'm battling on the frontline of the platform. As soon as I learn what's in Squarespace's future, I will be here to help you through it.

In the Meantime...

Site Launch: CAST

I'm thrilled to announce our latest project for Cast Communication Design.

Cast wanted a total re-brand (and even a name-change) from their previous Squarespace site, so they came to me to develop the site. I worked directly with another designer and translated design comps into Squarespace-reality. I used almost every trick in my bag, and of-course, learned some new tricks along the way!

One thing I'm particularly proud of is the "give us your email address and we'll give you a download" implementation on Cast's 'Position Papers' page. Give it a try by submitting your email address, and let me know what you think!
