I was looking to create a website and thankfully came across Mikka and Studio Elias. She was great during the entire process and I'm very happy with how the website came out. It's sleek, fully functional, and very modern and she was able to quickly understand what I was looking for. Mikka was quick with her responses and turn around times for her work and any questions or requests that I had. I would recommend her to anyone.

Can't say enough about how wonderful Mikka @ Studio Elias is!! After interviewing 5 women led web design companies I landed on Mikka. What a great fit! Mikka was the ONLY one who cautioned me to do a site refresh rather than starting from scratch. She told me in doing that I would be able to keep all the SEO going from my current site rather than starting over. That told me she was willing to not only design my beautiful new site she was also willing to keep my best interest in mind rather than what was easier to do. Mikka is an excellent communicator. Very detail oriented. Again, can't say enough about Mikka @ Studio Elias.

Working with Mikka at Studio Elias was an exceptional experience from start to finish. She took a fully built but unstyled Squarespace site and transformed it into something that genuinely communicates the mission and gravitas of The Great America Project. Her responsiveness, attention to detail, and creative instincts were outstanding throughout. She asked the right questions, respected the brief, and delivered ahead of schedule. The result speaks for itself. I would not hesitate to work with her again and will be bringing her back for our next project.

Working with Studio Elias was a breeze! Mikka was very responsive, even when I couldn't always be. She did excellent work on our new Squarespace website and managed to get most of it done with very little input from my end. I found Studio Elias through the Squarespace Marketplace, I was able to manage the entire project via the online chat, and the price for Mikka's time was fair. I had an excellent experience and will reach out to Mikka and Studio Elias again for future projects. Thank you!

Mikka is awesome. She's built two sites for me and is a Squarespace wizard. She really listens to understand exactly what you're looking for, and while she comes back with great suggestions, she never imposes her own ideas on you. She's a pleasure to work with. She's got great taste in design, knows the functionality of the platform inside out, and the after-sales service is amazing - always fast and response to help with tweaks or questions. Highly recommended.

If I could give Studio Elias 10 stars I would. If Mikka Cruz says it, you can count on it. She's an expert in Squarespace & the ecosystem. She is straightforward and pragmatic. I struggled to find the right person to build out my website-- I am so thrilled that I found her through the Squarespace recommended vendors! However you find her, you'll be glad you did!

Best web designer/ developer in the game when it comes to Squarespace. I have tried over 10 different teams/ individuals and no one comes close to what Mikka (Founder) offers. The response time is blistering fast. Execution is even faster. Her attention to detail is second to none. Most importantly, she knows how to make sites that convert. At the end of the day you want not just a good designer but someone who understands business and help you create something that will generate revenue. I have been working with Studio Elias since 2016ish and I can't see it changing anytime soon. My highest recommendations.

Process
Our Squarespace web design agency experience
Discovery, Proposal & Content Collection
We start with a discovery call to understand your needs. After agreeing on the scope and pricing, a 50% deposit secures the project.
We then gather all the content—text, images, and multimedia—to align with your brand.
Homepage Concepts & Review
We begin by designing two initial concepts for your homepage, giving you options to choose from and refine.
After you review and provide feedback, we’ll finalize the design, ensuring we’re perfectly aligned before moving forward with the rest of the site.
Full Site Build & Review
With the homepage approved, we design the rest of the site to match the finalized look and feel. Each page is crafted for clarity, consistency, and ease of use.
Once the full site is ready, you'll review everything and share any final edits before we prepare for launch.
Website Launch & Support
As we prepare for launch, we’ll handle all the technical details to ensure everything goes smoothly. After the final 50% payment, we’ll transfer full ownership of the site to your account.
Plus, we provide 30 days of ongoing support to make sure everything runs perfectly post-launch.
BEHIND STUDIO ELIAS
Meet your founder
Hello, I’m Mikka (pronounced MEE-kuh).
I founded Studio Elias as a Squarespace web design agency to offer fully managed design solutions and ongoing support to businesses worldwide. With the support of my small team, I've built more than 250 Squarespace websites and am proud to be among the first certified Squarespace Experts and Authorized Trainers globally.
My journey began with 10 years in graphic design before I specialized in full-service Squarespace development in 2018. Studio Elias naturally evolved from my expertise, and I've been fortunate to earn the trust of clients across the US, UK, Australia, Singapore, and beyond as a registered U.S. entity.
When I'm not designing, you'll find me playing board games, training jiujitsu, or traveling with my husband Tim and our children, Elias (our studio namesake!) and Cali.
