As a Squarespace designer I am SO excited for the Finish Layer tools they just dropped. I already loved Squarespace for the easy drag and drop interface, but this adds a whole new level to my work.
Which of the tools are you the most excited to try?
Those tools makes the work more fun and clean
That's what I'm thinking too!
This is seriously impressive. It feels as fast as AI, but somehow gives you even more control without getting in your way.
Exactly! It's super easy to use and gives you tons of control
Yes, you're right that Squarespace is quite easy but there are some restriction on the Squarespace that's quite tricky to solve @Kristina Balciunaite by the way you did an excellent job
Thank you, Ethasham! And yes, it's true there are still some limitations! However, in my experience most clients want simple and functional websites they can edit themselves, which Squarespace solves really well.
Haven't tried it
Will check it out
Highly recommend! My clients love the ease of editing it after we launch
The mood board comparison sold me, that's exactly the kind of friction Squarespace usually removes well. Have you tried Finish Layer on a client site yet, or still testing it on personal projects first?
Glad to hear that resonated! I do have a project lined up to use the new tools on a client project. However, so far I've used the tools to create and sell templates
Great update
Thank you, Samuel!
Thanks for the update
My pleasure!
Using the tools on templates first is a smart way to learn their edges before a client project. Has selling those templates changed which finish-layer feature you expect to lean on most for the upcoming work?
I mean they all just make the process of what I would usually do quicker. Like hiding elements or adding certain animations would require custom code before, and now they're done in a few clicks. It speeds everything up!
Lovely

Built this free SaaS portfolio template in Framer a few months ago, and it’s been amazing to see the momentum it’s gaining! 🚀
It’s now ranked #18 in Framer’s Marketing category, bringing in more visibility, views, and commissions.
I’ve shared the full case study here, covering the project and how it came together.
Take a look if you’re curious! 🙌

I'll prefer photos, specially talking about organizations in your page, human faces and real scenarios can have a better effect in this case.
A fresh digital identity, a premium workspace designed for creative professionals.
From an elegant, editorial-style website to a functional mobile app for bookings and studio management, the goal was to make every interaction feel as refined as the space itself.
Clean layouts, timeless typography and a deep green palette bring the whole experience together.
This looks super premium Kabir! Love how you carried the same refined, editorial feel from the website to the mobile app. The clean layouts and booking flow feel exactly like a high-end creative studio should - elegant but functional. The desktop + mobile mockups show the consistency really well. Great execution!
