Website refresh to Squarespace 7.1

Upgrading an already great site

Okay, full disclosure: this small business is owned by a family member. I had designed the initial website (it may have been my first or second Squarespace site), but after 7 or 8 years, and the recent Squarespace 7.1 release, it was time to upgrade.

Since the website was first launched, the business owner had collected a number of new great reviews and had new work to share. There were many things we liked about the original design but really wanted to showcase the great work he has done.

Before / after Sliders

The website “client” had many before and after photos collected over the years. Rather than simply place in a gallery (we did that as well) I wanted a dynamic way of showing the dramatic difference between his “before”s and “after”s.

Using custom coding we added a special slider feature that allows the user to drag an icon left and right across the image to see the before and after.

We further embedded several short videos throughout the page to add additional dynamic content.
