The top 10 UK Squarespace web designers to watch in 2026-2027

The top 10 UK Squarespace web designers to watch in 2026-2027

Every year a handful of "best Squarespace designer" lists go up, and every year most of them read like a phone book. This one is a prediction. These are the ten UK designers and studios we think will do the best Squarespace work over the next twelve months, judged on what they're shipping now and how their services are changing.

We have been building on Squarespace since 2018, so we know most of these people's work well, and a few of them personally. Pricing and details are taken from each studio's own website or published directory listings as of October 2026. Prices change, so always confirm with the designer before you budget.

How we picked

We started with the 2026 designer directories already published and kept to studios based in the UK. There are several, and the same names keep coming up. Then we went through each studio's own site, portfolio and Squarespace credentials.

Work quality counted most, judged on live sites we could click through rather than screenshots. After that we looked at depth on the platform (Circle partner tier, Marketplace Expert status, years spent on Squarespace specifically) and at what each studio has added lately. A designer who now offers accessibility audits or AI search work ranked above one selling the same package as in 2022.

And yes, we put ourselves first. It's our list. We've made the case for that below, and we've tried to be straight about who each of the other nine suits better than us.

Sam Crawford of by Crawford
No. 2

Pricing

Website

Why we're watching: Enterprise Partner status puts by Crawford in line for the larger, multi-site brand projects Squarespace is chasing.

Nick Croce of Design by Ency
No. 3

Nick Croce

Design by Ency

Nick has designed and built 250+ websites for founders, creatives, SMEs and agencies across more than 25 industries. He is a Squarespace Circle Platinum Partner and Marketplace Expert with 50+ verified five-star reviews. Unlike most studios at his level, Nick does the work himself: no handing your project to a junior once the contract is signed.

Location
Liverpool, UK, working with clients in the UK, US and Europe
Services
Website health checks, custom web design, a managed website plan, branding and copywriting add-ons, an SEO growth plan, and white label Squarespace work for agencies.
Pricing
Custom builds from £3,000. Managed plan from £150/month (billed annually). SEO add-on £500/quarter.
Website
designbyency.com

Why we're watching: Nick's sites are bold without being hard to use, and his managed plan is a smart answer to the client who wants the site looked after but doesn't want to think about it. Expect his name on a lot more of these lists.

Dave Hawkins of Made by Dave
No. 4

Dave Hawkins

Made by Dave

Made by Dave is a London studio with twelve years on the platform, 650+ sites and more than 18,000 hours logged in Squarespace. Dave holds just about every badge Squarespace hands out: Circle Platinum Partner, Authorised Trainer, Marketplace Expert and Community Leader. Clients include Skyscanner and CUNY.

Location
London, UK
Services
Custom builds, site audits, e-commerce, "Designer for a Day" sessions, custom code and integrations, training, and accessibility and compliance work.
Pricing
Projects from around £2,000; Designer for a Day from around £950 (per published directory listings).
Website
madebydave.org

Why we're watching: the European Accessibility Act has made accessibility a legal requirement for many businesses selling into the EU, and few Squarespace studios offer it as a proper service. Dave does.

Tasha Dobie of The Square Agency
No. 5

Tasha Dobie

The Square Agency

Tasha has been a Squarespace Expert since 2017 and has built 350+ sites for startups, nonprofits and larger businesses. The Square Agency works only on Squarespace and builds every site from scratch rather than from a template.

Location
London, UK
Services
Custom design and development, e-commerce, custom code, SEO, migrations to Squarespace, courses and memberships, and monthly maintenance.
Pricing
From around $2,500 for a five-page site; e-commerce builds cost more. Most projects take 2 to 6 weeks.
Website
thesquareagency.com

Why we're watching: the agency blog tracks every Squarespace commerce update closely, and it shows in her e-commerce and membership builds.

Ruth Gaunt, Squarespace web designer
No. 6

Ruth Gaunt

Ruth Gaunt

Ruth has designed, built and launched 100+ Squarespace sites in a single working day each. She has 56 five-star Google reviews and works mainly with small business owners who want a professional site without a long project.

Pricing
Website in a Day is £2,200, with a £700 deposit to book the date.
Website
ruthgaunt.co.uk

Why we're watching: one-day builds used to mean cutting corners. Ruth's portfolio shows they don't have to, and her pricing has climbed as a result.

Emily Lewis of TwoFold
No. 7

Emily Lewis

TwoFold

Emily describes herself as a marketer first and a designer second, and TwoFold's work reflects that. She is a Circle Platinum Partner, and her clients have been covered by the BBC and Forbes.

Pricing
From £1,200.
Website
twofold-studios.com

Why we're watching: most designers hand over the site and step away. TwoFold keeps going with monthly marketing, which suits owners who want one person responsible for results.

Love Ajayi of Novule

Why we're watching: of everyone on this list, Novule is the one most likely to make people stop saying "you can always tell it's a Squarespace site."

Elizabeth Ellery, Squarespace web designer
No. 9

Elizabeth Ellery

Elizabeth Ellery

Liz has spent over a decade designing brands and Squarespace sites for 100+ business owners, mostly coaches and service businesses. She is a Squarespace Marketplace Expert and Community Leader, and Squarespace Circle has featured her work on its own blog.

Website
elizabethellery.com

Why we're watching: she sells the same look three ways, from a £245 template to a full brand and site, so business owners can start small and come back for the full build later.

Krishna Solanki of Krishna Solanki Designs
No. 10

Krishna Solanki

Krishna Solanki Designs

Krishna has run her award-winning brand and Squarespace studio for nearly a decade. She is a Squarespace Marketplace Expert and Circle member, and runs brand identity and website as one project rather than two.

Why we're watching: she has carved out a niche in life sciences and biotech, a sector most Squarespace designers never touch.
