Introducing Squarespace Portfolio

Truly accessible content should be at your fingertips at all times. How many times have you been in a meeting, an interview, or at a show where you need access to the images on your website but find yourself struggling without reliable Internet access? That’s why we created Squarespace Portfolio: an unbranded, simple way to take the work in your portfolio with you and access it without needing to connect to the Internet.

  • Simple, clean design means your work shows through without unnecessary branding, buttons or other distractions. Your work is always front and center.
  • Squarespace Portfolio synchronizes with the gallery collections on your Squarespace 6 website, letting you download them to your iPhone or iPad so you can take them with you. Your images will always load quickly from your device – no internet connection required.
  • Touch and hold images from your portfolio view screen to easily email them to others.
  • Very simple customization options surrounding image size, caption display, borders, and color so the portfolio can easily adapt to your work.

Squarespace Portfolio is available for free to all current Squarespace customers and is available today from the app store.

Keep in mind that you don’t need to use Squarespace for your public website to use the portfolio app. You can create a private, standard Squarespace 6 account and sync your galleries from there!

(P.S. We've made updates to our current Squarespace site manager apps for the iPhone and iPad that fixes many existing bugs. We are continuing to develop major updates, and will share them as soon as we can.)

Squarespace: Crain's #2 Best Place to Work in NYC

As Squarespace’s offerings have expanded and our customer base has grown, so has our team behind the scenes. In 2012, we've nearly doubled our headcount to 107 employees (and counting!)

One of the biggest challenges of rapidly growing a company like Squarespace is maintaining our flat, open, and creative culture. Given this challenge, we are proud to be named the #2 Best Place to Work in New York City by Crain's New York Business.  From complimentary yoga to daily organic lunches to unlimited time off, we pride ourselves on providing a positive work environment that lets our employees focus on their jobs rather than sweat the small stuff.

Crain's recognizes the best places to work in New York City as ranked by compensation, perks, atmosphere, and more. These companies were chosen by a combination of direct employee responses and company benefits.
