As Squarespace prepares to launch its first-ever Australia-specific campaign, Mumbrella spoke to the company’s VP of creative, Ben Hughes, to get an insight into managing a campaign from the kitchen at 3am, entering a foreign market and figuring out Australian slang.
While it is uncommon for a company as big as Squarespace to keep all of its creative operations in-house, but from an Emmy-award winning campaign with John Malkovich to winning 2020 AdAge A-List In-House Agency of the Year, it seems to be going pretty well for them.
VP of creative at Squarespace, Ben Hughes
Working closely with chief creative officer David Lee, Hughes leads the team at Squarespace that creates all of the company’s advertising, brand design and content. Hughes joined Squarespace three-years-ago from Stink Studios, working as executive creative director, previously working at West, B-Reel, and Strange Industries amongst others.
Joe Murphy remembers the moment he first realised that
Younger, the fluffy Darren Star-produced US TV series he started working on in 2016, had become a cult hit.

Author Interview: White Masculinity in Contemporary Australia
Posted on: March 16, 2021
Exploring the contradictory resistance to and adoration of ideals of masculinity
White Masculinity in Contemporary Australia spans the disciplines of sociology, history, media and cultural studies, and popular culture to offer a historical exploration of Australian masculine tropes and an examination of contemporary representations of masculinity in the media.
This book was published in 2019, and has only recently been released in Paperback format. The author of this book, Andrea Waling, was kind enough to spend some time answering some of the most pressing questions about the current state of masculinity in Australia and how it has developed within modern society.
