Adding Definition to a Blank Canvas
WordPress themes are incredibly powerful. But, as with every web design project, a theme is more than color and layout. Good themes improve engagement with your website’s content in addition to being beautiful.
It's all in the Presentation
Choosing the right theme for your project plays a key part in producing the website you envisage. Yes, you can (& will) add the page builder, plugins and custom code but the foundation is the design options and functionality available within your theme.
This is a simple introduction to some of the themes we have utilised for our projects and would happily recommend. The pros & cons of each we’ll come to in a series of case studies over the coming weeks.
