This theme, which will be released shortly, embraces and makes the most of the latest features of the platform.
In the new WordPress theme for 2025, simply named Twenty Twenty-Five, it is also, in a way, possible to see the platform’s vision for the future. Let’s take a look at what’s in store.
Twenty Twenty-Five, the new WordPress theme for next year
There are hundreds and hundreds of different themes available for WordPress. Some portals specialize in collecting the best ones, both free and paid, and there are companies and developers who focus exclusively on this aspect of websites.
This is because the theme of a website is the way it presents itself to users, the way the content windows are organized, and it is therefore a business card that must be meticulously crafted. This is precisely why there are so many different themes: despite operating in the same niche, each does it in its own way.
For those who are perhaps just starting out and looking for something simple to use, the solution is to avoid overly complex themes and start with the one WordPress offers by default. With the release of version 6.7, the new theme named Twenty Twenty-Five will also be introduced.
A post on the official platform blog is dedicated to the new theme, allowing us to look at the first bits of information WordPress has decided to share. In the very first lines, for example, we are told about the concept behind the new theme: “simple things should be intuitive while complex things should be possible.”
This concept, presented by Matt Mullenweg on his blog, is now becoming a tangible reality. Blending simplicity and complexity in a progressively challenging environment helps broaden the user base, truly supporting those who are just starting out while also providing good tools to those who want to start from the base WordPress theme (which, as we will see, is quite elegant and clean) but wish to change only a few aspects.
Like all themes that are not specifically designed for a single type of website, the WordPress Twenty Twenty-Five theme is primarily versatile and flexible. The patterns available to users cover most sections of nearly every type of website on the internet.
For example, there are many options for pages dedicated to your services, landing pages, call-to-action spaces, and events. This wide variety of elements helps maintain a consistent aesthetic appearance of the theme and the website. We know how much even aesthetic consistency helps create a positive feeling for the user.
There are also some templates specifically designed for blogs. A blog theme is essentially different from a traditional website theme since, more often than not, a website theme leaves room for images, while with a blog, the text needs to stand out and take center stage.
Not to mention the existence of photo blogs, which are simple types of websites intended to showcase an artist’s portfolio or to tell stories more through images than text. To complete the overview of the basic options, there are new combinations of colors and fonts.
The colors are organized into palettes, which can serve as a starting point for your personal exploration or be used as they are. There is a predominance of blues and pinks, but there is also a theme with strong contrasts and another that includes a color inspired by earth tones.
As mentioned earlier, the colors can be customized at will, but the presence of the palettes allows you to always return to a color combination that works. Following the same principle, you can adopt the eight default font combinations or choose a custom font.
