New Themes: Libretto, Lovecraft, and Publication
Inject some style and sophistication into your blog with our 3 latest free themes.
Happy Theme Thursday! Today we’re introducing three new free themes to our collection: Libretto, Lovecraft, and Publication.
Libretto
Featuring big, bold drop caps and oversized images, Libretto is ideal for showcasing longform writing or stunning imagery. Its classic design and typographic details will give your blog a sophisticated, elegant look. Fully responsive, the theme adapts easily to tablets and other mobile devices, ensuring that your content is easy to see.
Libretto is a fork of Readly, originally designed by WPShower.
Get to know Libretto in the Theme Showcase, or give it a spin by activating it from Appearance → Themes.
Lovecraft
Lovecraft, by Anders Norén, is a fashionable solution for your personal blog or website. Prominent custom headers and featured images give your visuals a bold presence, three footer widget areas offer plenty of space for secondary information, and striking typography and attention to detail makes your content the star.
Check out Lovecraft in the Theme Showcase, or activate it from Appearance → Themes.
Publication
Meet Publication, an elegant blog and magazine theme that features full-screen Featured Images, crafted by Automattic’s own Thomas Guillot. It’s perfect for sites about fashion, food, travel, or design. With balanced typography, colors, and attention to detail, Publication helps you create visually stunning posts.
Learn more about Publication at the Theme Showcase, or set it up by going to Appearance → Themes.

I just redesigned my blog this week and came very close to choosing Libretto. In the end, my existing content needed a different block quote format. Still nice, though.

Libretto appeals to me for long form publishing. It’s so clean and I love the dropcaps.
Keep more of these beautiful free themes coming, please. 🙂

My compliments on yet another batch of interesting new Themes. I just tested all three and… ‘Suburbia’ is still far and away the best theme for my blog!

I love Lovecraft! 😀 It increases the font size but I wish there was a theme that put the writing more in the middle like in the Sela Theme.

I activated Libretto immediately. It’s lovely apart from the huge text size of block quotes.
I know the font size can be changed in CSS, but in the absence of that it strikes me as just too overwhelmingly big compared to the rather elegant and delicate main body text.
Just my thoughts.

When it comes to publishing articles, nothing beats the 2014 theme. The fixed menu, secondary menu and customized menu on the sidebars allow you to group articles into topics. You can also remove the left sidebar and the header image in full-page format leaving page uncluttered. I think the theme Publication is suitable for a blog, probably not for serious publication.
