Adri

What Adri is

Adri is one of Squarespace's own free 7.1 Fluid Engine templates, styled as the personal site of a freelance web designer. It is small and warm: a homepage that introduces the person, a projects page with three case studies, and a Book Consultation page built on Squarespace Scheduling. The old listing on this page described Adri as a template for technology companies with documentation hubs and support sites; that is wrong. It is a personal services and portfolio template for a solo creative.

What it does

The homepage runs through a hero introduction, a two column approach section, a row of three stats, a featured project, a case study carousel, client testimonials, a call to action into the booking page and an FAQ, then a newsletter sign up in the footer. The projects page lists each case study as its own page with a summary and a View Project link, so you can add or remove projects without touching a portfolio collection. The Book Consultation page is a plain page with a call to action that is meant to hold a Scheduling block, which is why the template suits people who sell their time. Everything is native Fluid Engine, so sections can be rearranged, colours and fonts changed in Site Styles, and pages added from the standard library.

Who it suits

Freelance web and graphic designers, brand consultants, coaches and other solo professionals who want a friendly, first person site with a handful of case studies and a way to book a call. It is also a sensible free starting point for a new business that plans to grow the site over time.

One honest caveat

It is thin. Three pages and three case studies is the whole demo, the case studies are simple pages rather than a filterable portfolio, and there is no about, services or blog page out of the box, so anyone with a larger body of work or a service menu will be building pages themselves. As with every Squarespace template it comes with no third party support or training beyond Squarespace's own help centre.

Setup

Adri is free and included with every Squarespace plan: start a trial from the Squarespace templates page, pick Adri and the demo content is loaded for you to replace. There is no licence to buy and no install. Booking needs Squarespace Scheduling (Acuity), which is a separate subscription, and the newsletter block needs a storage connection such as Squarespace Email Campaigns or Mailchimp.
