1. Nueva (Service, Booking Schedule, Parallax Scrolling)

Nueva highlights include big image intro with big typography, parallax scrolling effects, clear testimonials and a strong emphasis on booking appointments. The template comes bundled with booking functionality including a Commerce checkout option.
2. Royce (Event, RSVP, Minimal, Announcement)
Royce is a slick Landing Page template for announcing an event and gathering RSVPs.
Royce highlights include a big intro image with a lovely subtle parallax scrolling effect as you scroll, event details, food/drink menu highlights and a the RSVP form the invitee can’t miss.
3. Sofia (Service, Long-scrolling, Big Image)
Sofia is a clean resume-style Landing Page template with a generous amount of whitespace. The template starts with a friendly greeting followed by a stunning big image of yourself.
Sofia highlights include sections for services, work experience, testimonials, contact form and ends with an embedded Instagram feed to add a bit of personality.
4. Blend (Location, Coffee Shop, Restaurant)
Blend is a Landing Page template suited for a hip restaurant or coffee shop. This contemporary design could actually be used for any location-based Landing Page. Think along the lines of pop-up stores, live events or even tech meet-ups.
Blend highlights include big image intro slideshow, location details, opening hours, company ethos, parallax scrolling elements, newsletter sign up box, menu, Google Map location, additional pop-up gallery and ends with a pop-up enquiry form.
5. Clay (Product, Commerce, Image Gallery)
Clay is a Landing Page template suited for selling your products.
Highlights include big images within a multi-image gallery switcher, product specifications and of course full Commerce checkout functionality. To create a single Product-focused Landing Page I’d suggested setting a Product page as your home Page (as seen below).
Bonus: Cover Pages (Launching Soon, Lead Capture, Announcement)
A Squarespace Cover Page presents information in a simple but striking webpage and are perfect for Launching Soon websites if you are not ready for a full Landing Page.
Each Cover Page includes a pre-styled layout (around 20 to choose from) and a panel of editing tools for adding imagery, text, buttons, forms, audio, maps, video and more.
