You know this look: Big, oversized introductory headers of small paragraphs. Popular, initially, on personal blogs they’ve now caught on and are popping up like Redenbacher on regular design agency sites.

8 Clean & Sharp WordPress Themes with Centered, Serif Headers

Derek Land — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 16:20:42 +0000

So I tried to nail down a specific look — at least, a specific feature. Each of these WordPress themes features the same style of header: A clean, centered, professional-looking serif typeface. Enjoy.

Free

Manifest

A clean, simple easy-to-read and content-focused theme. Perhaps a bit too simple due to lack of sidebars, but that’s what makes it wonderful.

Folio Elements

Okay so the serif type is actually serif letters, but it’s easy to swap the ”75″ out with whatever you’d like to say. This theme is fantastic in simplicity and the scrolling is smooth for the main features.

Agregado Lifstream

Beautiful theme for lifetreaming — getting all your stuff together in one big place so your friends can keep up with your life.

Zinmag Tribune

This one is intense and has lots of space for ads and side features (I tried it for my blog but it was waaaaay too in-depth for what I needed). Lots of room to manoeuvre and expand.

Not Free

Impressions ($25)

NewsBlog ($19.95)

Geometric ($70)

Simple, clean and dark. Kind of like Manifest, but with the whole darkness of Batman. Kind of.
