Squarespace won't let you upload this as a standalone file — pages there are built from blocks, not raw HTML files. The cleanest way to get this exact design live is to use a Cover Page (Squarespace's purpose-built layout for splash/holding pages with no site header, nav, or footer getting in the way) and drop your code into it with a Code Block.
Here's the process:
1. Create a Cover Page
In the Squarespace dashboard, go to Pages → click + → choose Cover Page (in 7.1 sites this may show as a "Blank" page type — pick the one with no header/footer chrome).
Give it a title like "Coming Soon."
2. Add your code
Inside the Cover Page editor, add a Code Block (click an insert point → Code).
Set the block's type to HTML.
Paste in the content of your file — but don't include , , , or tags. Squarespace already provides those; you're inserting into an existing page, not replacing it. So paste:
Your block as-is
Then the contents of ... (the
...
part)
3. Fix the body-level CSS
Your stylesheet styles the body tag directly (the flex centering, background pattern, font). Since this will now sit inside Squarespace's own body, that selector won't apply the way you expect. Fix: wrap everything in a container
