About We make software that helps you manage your online life. Squarespace is publishing redefined.

In 2003, after being unable to find a way to elegantly publish his personal website, Anthony Casalena began work on the software that is now the Squarespace Platform. Since its inception, Squarespace has blossomed into a product that powers tens of thousands of sophisticated websites for businesses, bloggers, and professionals worldwide and currently serves hundreds of millions of hits per month. Squarespace has been mentioned in both the Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek, as well as on countless other blogs and news sites. Our small team consists of solely bio-worthy names, and due to our entirely organic revenue growth, we operate free from the restrictions and obligations of organizations controlled by outside investors.

Squarespace is defined by our insistence on software that provides an unparalleled user experience from a robust core. Every pixel of Squarespace’s software is engineered and animated to be flawless. Squarespace was conceived to be — and will remain — a departure from the sea of free products and "me too" services that pollute today’s web marketplace.

Krystyn Heide

Senior Designer

Krystyn Heide grew up in a family of left and right brainers. Her mixed up genes made her fall hard for web design, and she quickly became a self-proclaimed CSS junkie. Her refined design aesthetic has resulted in an impressive portfolio of sites for major brands, non-profits, celebrities and new media companies. Krystyn has conducted design workshops, lectured at social media conferences, and has had her work featured in a variety of both online and offline design showcases including Kirtsy's "Best of.." book. Her business card says Senior Designer, but she's also equal parts user experience advocate and Squarespace evangelist.
