Featured among Canada's Best Squarespace Designers & Developers
I’m very happy to share that Audrey Thizy Studio has been featured by Digital Reference among Canada’s Best Squarespace Designers & Developers.
The article highlights independent designers and developers across Canada who use Squarespace to create thoughtful, strategic, and highly personalized websites.
I was especially touched by the way my work was described: expressive, intuitive, transparent, collaborative, and carefully considered. These are values that sit at the heart of how I approach every project.
Designing websites that feel personal
I believe a website should do more than look beautiful. It should feel like a true extension of the person, artist, or business behind it. It should communicate clearly, create connection, and give visitors an immediate sense of who you are and what makes your work distinctive. This is particularly important for artists, creatives, and founder-led businesses. Your website often needs to bring together many different layers: your personality, your work, your story, your expertise, and the practical information people need to understand what you offer. My role is to shape all of those elements into one clear and cohesive digital experience. I want each website I create to feel expressive and individual, but also easy to navigate, strategically structured, and intuitive to use.
A personal, founder-led process
Audrey Thizy Studio is an independent, owner-led studio, which means every project is personally led and created by me. From the first conversation and strategic planning to the visual direction, design, development, and final refinements, my clients work directly with me throughout the entire process. That close collaboration is incredibly important to me. I take the time to understand not only what a client needs their website to do, but also how they want it to feel, what they want it to communicate, and how they want people to experience their work.
I don’t believe in applying the same visual formula to every project. Each website begins with the client’s identity, goals, content, audience, and creative world. My aim is always to create something that feels unmistakably theirs.
Why I work with Squarespace
I chose to specialize in Squarespace because it offers a strong and flexible foundation for creatives and small businesses. It allows me to create highly customized websites while giving my clients the freedom to confidently manage and update their own content after launch. For me, Squarespace is never about simply choosing a template and filling in the sections. I use strategy, custom design, thoughtful typography, visual storytelling, and custom development to transform the platform into something much more personal and distinctive.
Every project is designed to balance:
Creative expression and clarity
Personality and professionalism
Visual impact and ease of use
Customization and long-term manageability
The platform is only the foundation. The real work lies in understanding the client and creating a website that supports where they are now and where they want to go next.
What this recognition means to me
Being included among Canada’s best Squarespace designers and developers feels especially meaningful because it reflects the values I have worked hard to build my studio around. I care deeply about creating thoughtful work, communicating transparently, and making the design process feel collaborative and supportive. I also know how personal it can feel to trust someone with your website. For many of my clients, their website represents years of work, creativity, ideas, experience, and ambition. Being invited into that process is something I never take lightly.
This recognition is also a reflection of the wonderful clients who have trusted me with their work and allowed me to create alongside them. I’m incredibly grateful to every artist, creative professional, and founder who has chosen to work with me.
