The Squarespace 7.1 Sections Library Designers Have Been Begging For
If you’ve been building on Squarespace 7.1 for any amount of time, you’ve probably felt it:
You click Add Section, scroll through the defaults…
…and instantly hit a wall.
The layouts feel dated.
The spacing feels off.
Everything looks like a wireframe instead of a finished design.
If you’re a designer, you’ve probably asked yourself at least once:
“Why are the Squarespace 7.1 sections so… ugly?”
You’re not alone.
This exact complaint pops up constantly across Reddit, Facebook groups, and Slack communities:
“Every site starts from a blank section.”
“The default sections look amateurish.”
“Templates are stale and all look the same.”
“I delete everything and rebuild from scratch.”
“Why doesn’t Squarespace update their designs?”
Squarespace 7.1 is a fantastic platform… but its section library hasn’t kept up with what modern businesses expect.
And that gap forces designers to reinvent the wheel on every project.
The Real Problem: Designers Don’t Need More Templates — They Need Better Sections
Everything about a website — layout, hierarchy, rhythm, conversion flow — comes from the sections. When those are limited, repetitive, or visually outdated, the entire build suffers.
As a designer, you need sections that:
look modern
have clean spacing
handle real content
create visual storytelling
support brand strategy
convert visitors
feel professional out of the box
Instead, you get:
giant icons
awkward margins
generic blocks
dated patterns
minimal variety
repetitive designs
layouts that all look the same
So what do designers do?
They rebuild everything by hand. Every. Single. Project.
And a 2-week build becomes 4–6 weeks because the fundamental components aren’t pulling their weight.
Designers aren’t looking for another “starter template.” They’re looking for a massive collection of professionally designed sections they can plug into any client site in seconds.
