01
Hi! My name is Dominique Marshall and I’m a Squarespace & UX Designer based in London, United Kingdom.
02
Outside work you will often find me playing computer games with my partner, learning Japanese, journalling or watching true crime documentaries
03
But on a typical workday, I am usually reviewing websites for clients, designing UX-driven layouts in Squarespace, and drinking matcha or reading design magazines while listening to lofi music. (VIEW)
04
My day usually starts with journalling/writing morning pages and reading.
05
Most of the time I am working on helping clients strengthen and simplify their website.
“Strategic website design doesn’t have to be soulless”
06
What are your first memories of the Internet?
The MySpace era! Learning simple bits of code to customise my profile. Figuring out how to design websites in Adobe Dreamweaver. Not being able to use the internet if someone was using the landline phone (and the dial-up tone that came along with it!)
07
What is the best part about the process of building websites for you?
Translating mockups into a live website and figuring out how to create layouts using code
08
What is your favorite stretch or pastime in between coding?
Singing along to my favourite bands and having a good stretch!
09
How would you describe your Standout Style in 2-3 words? Minimalist. Earthy. Modern.
10
Which Standout workshops do you find yourself incorporating most often on your website projects?
Stacked list cards, split sections, auto layout testimonial sliders, scattered images in sections,
11
What makes your work standout?
I take a soul-led UX approach to design. During the strategy phase, I help clients reconnect with their inner world so they can gain a newfound sense of confidence in their brand, knowing it's a true representation of who they are and not just what they do.
12
What are the biggest takeaways from the Standout programs?
A big takeaway is that scoping code strategically is the best way to create a timeless and user-friendly website without needing to spend hours coding something new or innovative from scratch.
Another big takeaway is just how much is possible in Squarespace when you know how to code the Standout way!

What is your dream website project?
I would love to work with a yoga teacher, personal trainer or other wellness practitioners who help people prioritise joy and fun into their lifestyle
