Dodosix Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hi there, I'm an Art director in a Digital agency in France. And I need for my personal use, to do a website. I want to use Squarespace. I'm trying to choose a template, but as a designer, I obviously made my own website design 😉 The thing is that, as usual, I used a 12 column grid to create my page.. (You will get an overview with the attached file.) I've spent a lot of time reading a lot of articles on Squarespace but I don't really know what to think anymore! - Is there a way to make my design below on squarespace? using a template and transforming it or starting from scratch? - Is there a way to use these 12 columns grids to structure the site on Squarespace ? - Also, is there a way to create a docked navigation ?? Thank you so much for your help !! PS/I'm a dumb at coding... Link to comment

Squarespace is built on a 12-column grid with unlimited rows, so you should have no difficulties. If you create a blank page without using prebuilt layouts you should be able to create your layout by dragging items to fit. Spacer Blocks are your friend when you need whitespace. Here's a screencast of me moving blocks to build your design. For more information, see Moving blocks to customize layouts. About: SQSP User for 17 yrs. Circle Leader since 2017.
