In early 2012, with an outdated technology stack and a desire to “give customers immediate access to the best in modern web design”, New York-based company, Squarespace, knew they had to adapt. As a result, Squarespace 6 was born and re-engineered from the ground up, to take full advantage of the latest web technologies and power the websites that people dream of.

Recognizing Hanzo’s strong relationship with the design scene, and our expertise in interaction, visual design, and development, Squarespace approached Hanzo to create an original set of personal sites templates with a focus on music bands and creatives, as well as to help them define their public website and mobile application.

Hanzo created a brand new set of responsive templates that included dozens of advanced interaction patterns and flexible layouts to present images, text and sound, enabling artists, designers, photographers and musicians to create state-of-the-art personal websites, easily and within minutes.
