The brief
The project needed more than a standard brochure website because customers had to be able to browse and buy a changing range of products without getting lost.
The client also needed something manageable. Building an unnecessarily complex custom shop would have increased both the cost and the amount of ongoing technical work.
What I did
I used Squarespace Commerce as the reliable foundation, then added the missing pieces with custom code. This included a proper category bar, a custom search experience and clearer shipping information.
The custom work was designed to feel like part of the website rather than a collection of unrelated extras, and it works across both desktop and mobile.
The result
The finished website gives customers a much clearer route through the product range while leaving the day-to-day shop management inside Squarespace.
It is a good example of using an affordable platform for the majority of a project and adding bespoke code only where it genuinely improves the experience.
