Real World Example: Cuyana

Cuyana, a fashion brand known for its high-quality, timeless apparel and accessories, is a prime example of a business that has successfully leveraged Squarespace to build its online presence.

When Cuyana launched its website on Squarespace, it was able to create a sleek, modern design that reflected its brand ethos of "fewer, better things." The user-friendly interface allowed the team to customize the site to showcase their products effectively. Additionally, Squarespace's e-commerce capabilities enabled Cuyana to seamlessly manage their online store, leading to a significant increase in sales.

The built-in SEO tools helped Cuyana improve its search engine rankings, driving more organic traffic to the site. With the integrated analytics, the team could track visitor behavior and make data-driven decisions to enhance the user experience.

About

Becca Homen brings 10 years of product design experience in the outdoor industry and a passion for empowering impact-driven businesses — specializing in Squarespace website design and branding for service businesses across therapy, food and beverage, fitness, real estate, and more.

 

Services

  • Squarespace website design and development
  • Brand identity and visual design
  • Service business branding

 

 

Becca approaches every engagement with a research-first mindset — taking time to understand the brand, its audience, and the competitive landscape before any design work begins. That foundation is what separates identity work that lasts from work that dates quickly.

 

Clients range from early-stage founders building their brand identity for the first time to established businesses ready to evolve a visual system that no longer reflects who they've become. In every case, the goal is the same: design that feels unmistakably right and connects authentically with the right audience.

 

 

The best brand design work earns its place in the world — not just on a screen or a business card, but in the way people feel when they encounter the brand. That's the standard that guides every project, and it's why clients return for additional work and refer others who have the same standards.

 

If you're looking for a partner who takes your business seriously and delivers work that produces results, this is a strong fit. The best engagements start with a real conversation about what you need — not a templated proposal.

 

Available for service businesses and impact-driven brands looking for a website designer and brand specialist who genuinely cares about the mission.

About

I'm Julia Laughter, a graphic designer specializing in branding and web design — committed to being consciously creative and integrating seamlessly with every brand I work with. From day one, I'm fully invested in your brand's success.

 

What I Do

I believe top-notch design separates brands from competitors — reaching audiences both intellectually and emotionally. My work spans brand identity, UX/UI, web design, and product design, always built around understanding what makes your brand different and making that visible.

 

Services

  • Brand identity and logo design
  • Web design and UX/UI
  • Product design

 

 

Every project starts with listening. Before I pick up a pencil or open a file, I make sure I deeply understand what the brand is, who it's for, and what it needs to communicate — because great design is only possible when it's built on genuine understanding. That's why clients come back, and why the work holds up over time.

 

I work with a wide range of clients — from early-stage founders building their brand for the first time to established companies refreshing an identity that no longer reflects who they've become. Whatever the starting point, my goal is always the same: to create something that feels unmistakably right for your brand and genuinely connects with the people you're trying to reach.

 

 

What I value most in client relationships is directness and clarity — knowing exactly what success looks like before the work begins, and holding myself accountable to delivering it. I don't believe in long, meandering processes. I move quickly, communicate clearly, and produce work that I'm proud to put my name on.

 

Available for brands looking for a brand and web designer who's fully committed from the first conversation.
