The Dream Journal
I'd never touched Squarespace before this challenge. I build in Framer and Webflow for a living, so this was genuinely new territory for me — and when I saw the theme "a website makes it real," something about it just stuck. Because that's kind of the whole story of my own work too: an idea sitting somewhere as a half-formed thought until a website makes it undeniable.
So I wanted to try building something small around that feeling, a site called The Dream Journal, about all the dreams that stay folded up in notebooks until someone finally gives them a page. A bakery someone still hasn't opened. A brand that only exists as a name on a sticky note. A travel blog that lives in someone's head and nowhere else yet.
Life got in the way, honestly. Client work picked up right when I wanted to sit with this properly, so what I'm submitting isn't the finished version I pictured; it's an honest first pass. I used Blueprint AI to get the layout, palette, and fonts down in minutes, which genuinely surprised me with how fast it was, then spent the little time I had left shaping the copy and images around the concept.
I'm not submitting this to win. I'm submitting it because I didn't want just to watch this challenge happen and not try; even an unfinished attempt felt better than sitting it out. If nothing else, I walked away actually liking Squarespace more than I expected to, especially for how quickly it turns a rough idea into something that looks real.
