SQUARESPACE COLLECTION: Björk

PROJECT INFO
Microsite to house our first ever SQSP Collection, an initiative where we partner with the world’s most creative minds to build on the world’s most expressive website platform. We teamed up with Icelandic singer-songwriter and composer Björk to debut her latest album fossora. We created a digital environment for the release, a template based on our partnership, a film to document our process, and a microsite to encourage users to learn more.
