Kalina an editorial, modular Squarespace template designed to give creatives and service-led brands the considered presence of a bespoke site.
It includes a complete set of pages for services, products, content, and sales, so your site isn’t constrained. Rather than relying on add-ons, it offers a cohesive structure that can accommodate new offerings while offering a conversion-led structure.
-
I. Design
Kalina is built around clean, editorial layouts structured on a considered grid.
Pages are spacious and restrained, designed to showcase work, writing, and offers with the kind of visual clarity more often associated with bespoke sites. The overall feel is composed and confident.
The template includes modular split sections, styled journal and shop layouts, and flexible page structures supported by custom-coded design details not available in native Squarespace.
Pages, sections, layouts, typography, colour, imagery, and copy can be adjusted so the site reflects your studio.
-
II. System
Kalina is designed as a complete working system, not a partial starting point.
It includes dedicated layouts for services, portfolios, journal content, products, sales pages, newsletters, and contact, allowing everything to live within a single, integrated site. This removes the need for later add-ons or structural workarounds.
Squarespace’s built-in tools manage enquiries, payments, bookings, and subscriptions in the background, while the page structure keeps content, services, and offers clearly organised. The result is a site that feels composed rather than fragmented, even as new offers are added.
-
III. Strategy
Every layout in Kalina is shaped with intention.
Content is organised to help visitors quickly understand what you do, how you work, and how to engage. Services, case studies, and offers are given clear hierarchy, with natural pathways toward enquiry, booking, or purchase.
Sales pages, service layouts, and product pages include space for contact forms, booking links, and newsletter sign-ups at points that feel considered rather than intrusive.
-
IV. Support
Kalina includes access to the Template Guide, which covers setup, customisation, launch, and foundational website strategy and SEO.
You’ll also have access to email support if questions arise. For those who want additional input, optional bookings are available for design refinements, custom code, strategy, or SEO.

Kalina is designed for creative studios and individuals whose work is visual, personal, or process-driven.
It works particularly well for photographers, designers, artists, and creative studios presenting portfolios, journals, services, or editorial content. The structure supports work that unfolds through imagery, pacing, and considered composition, where how the work is encountered matters as much as what is being shown.
-
While Kalina supports service pages, written content, and light ecommerce, it is not designed as a shop-first or sales-heavy template.
If your site’s primary purpose is ecommerce browsing, high-volume product sales, or detailed sales funnels, a product-led template may be a better fit. Kalina places greater emphasis on presenting work, ideas, and services with space and intention.
