Theme development

We turn a design into a fast, accessible, editor-friendly WordPress theme — full-site-editing ready where it helps, classic where it does not.

Overview

A theme is where a WordPress site either becomes a pleasure to run or a daily fight. We build themes from your design with a real theme.json — your type, colour and spacing as tokens the editor respects — and block patterns for the layouts your team assembles again and again.

We choose block themes and full-site editing when editors benefit from that control, and a more classic structure when they don't. Either way the markup is semantic, the CSS is scoped and light, and the result loads quickly on a normal phone.

What a typical engagement includes

  • Theme built from your design files
  • theme.json tokens for type, colour and spacing
  • Block patterns for recurring layouts
  • Templates for every page type on the site
  • Editor guide covering patterns and settings

Indicative, not a contract. Your quote lists the exact scope.

Common questions

Block theme or classic theme?
It depends on who edits the site and how much layout freedom they need. We recommend one after seeing your design and talking to the people who will run the site day to day.
Can you match our brand exactly?
Yes. If you supply a design or brand guidelines we build to them precisely. If the brand is loose, we can tighten it into a token set as part of the work.
