Building a Website to Build a Skatepark

We already shared the brand we built for Skate Raleigh, but if the group was going to build Downtown Raleigh’s first skatepark—on an aggressive schedule—they’d need a website to be their online home. We were game, and we had a plan. 

Knowing we needed to move quickly and with the forethought of handing the site over to the Skate Raleigh team, we quickly landed on Squarespace as the right platform for this project.

Constraints are good and valuable on a tight schedule! To be clear: Skate Raleigh wouldn’t be held back by Squarespace. The platform offered everything they’d need for the foreseeable future. A key feature was taking online donations and having room to grow in providing commerce as well. After all, who doesn’t love a t-shirt with an excellent logo?


This project was produced at HALO 22. See the original post.
