What it does
If your brand has a Western or country feel, a generic theme rarely captures it. This theme starts with rustic design elements and full-screen creative layouts, so your site carries that character from the first page. It suits photographers, artists, designers and event planners who want their work presented through large video and imagery, and it also fits blogs and travel sites that lean into the Western lifestyle.
The theme ships with pre-built layouts for weddings, food, events, fashion, nature photography and commercial projects, which gives you several starting points. It is built on the Bootstrap grid and works with Elementor and Elementor Pro for drag and drop editing. You can add a shop through WooCommerce, translate content with WPML, and connect plugins such as Gravity Forms, BuddyPress, bbPress, Easy Digital Downloads and WP Easycart. Developers get the CSS, JS, HTML, LESS and SASS files for deeper changes.
Best for
- Blogs and travel sites with a Western or country theme
- Photographers, artists and event planners presenting visual work
