New Theme: Clean Home

Are you the type of person who enjoys simple and uncluttered looks on a theme? Clean Home, our new addition, is a crisp and structured theme wielding a traditional two column layout with two widgets areas.

Example of Clean Home's look and feel.

But don’t let Clean Home’s simple looks deceive you since it hides some great functionality to help you personalize how your site looks. It also comes with four color schemes, including a “snowy” and a “sunny” look —so both northern and southern hemisphere people out there can rejoice.

Go discover more about Clean Home at our Theme Showcase!

Designed by Mid Mo Design, Clean Home is now available for WordPress.com and, for self-hosted WordPress.org sites, from the WordPress.org Themes Directory.

    Problem with the “Dark” theme – captions on pictures are the same light color as the rest of the text, making them unreadable.

    I really appreciate the fact that you guys keep coming up with new themes for us. For some reason, when I previewed it came up in the same screen as if I had changed it rather than a separate screen like it does with other themes. Caused me a little panic for a minute!

    I wish there were drop-down menus and maybe a Home tab (when I preview by blog with the theme there’s an odd looking empty space). But otherwise a clean, well spaced, visually appealing theme that’s great for everyday blogging. Thanks!

    The typography is gorgeous, and I’d consider switching just for that, but there’s insufficient room for pages. They run into the top widget.

    Also, please consider offering a link and archive page. It would help keep the clean aesthetic.

    I think there are just too many plain themes. 10 of them should be enough, really. Otherwise I love the fact that new themes are coming more and more often these days. 🙂

    ps.: Automattic-guys, please don’t forget that those who have once switched to featured-image-themes can only change to other featured-image-themes now, and this really narrows down our possibilities.

      You can’t change the look of the site title unless you use the Custom CSS paid upgrade. You can experiment with the different schemes (dark, snowy, sunny) for a different site title color, nonetheless.
