Hot Off the Press: New WordPress.com Themes for June 2023

Five beautiful new WordPress.com themes for bloggers, photographers, restaurateurs, and more.

The WordPress.com team is always working on new design ideas to bring your website to life. Check out the latest themes in our library, featuring beautiful new options for bloggers, photographers, restaurateurs, and more.


George Lois

George Lois (1931-2022) was one of the most creative, prolific advertising communicators of our time. To honor his iconic style, we created this text-forward theme that utilizes bold yet classic typography and colors. Perfect for the blogger who wants to minimize visual clutter while still making a statement.

Poema

Poema pays tribute to the revered Portuguese writer, poet, and philosopher Fernando Pessoa. Its minimalist design features a black-and-white color scheme, complemented by an elegant serif font. Poema’s carefully crafted templates provide a comfortable content width and meticulously considered white space that creates a calming and immersive reading experience—ideal for the appreciation of poetry.

Archivo

Archivo came to life after one of our designers stumbled upon Documerica.org, which houses public-domain photographs originally taken as part of a photographic initiative from the United States’ Environmental Protection Agency. Utilizing a relatively small font and a large featured image allows the photography to play the starring role for any site using this theme.

Bibimbap

Named after the scrumptious Korean rice dish, Bibimbap is a fun and lively theme created with restaurants, bakeries, and food trucks in mind. It comes with unique patterns for menus, locations, and food-centric image galleries, allowing you to quickly design and build pages.

Olymp (Paid)

Olymp is a theme designed with WooCommerce users in mind. It’s a bold, fresh, and exciting look for any retailer looking to make waves with an online store. Built-in patterns for a number of pages means you don’t have to start from scratch when implementing Olymp. 

We’ve recently re-introduced third-party paid themes to the WordPress.com marketplace. All of these themes can be purchased as a $79/year subscription. Be sure to explore the entire collection here.

    Why is it not possible to view your blog as a demo of these themes? It used to be possible, but doesn’t seem so anymore. I’d rather see how my blog looks using one of these themes than activate it straight away without knowing.

      I agree. I made the mistake of activating one when I thought I would be able to demo it. Then I had to backtrack, delete, and repeat. I’m a vote to bring demo back!
