General Design
The design is built from straight lines and boxes. You can see that the author uses straight lines very frequently as a decorative and dividing tool. They play an important role in drawing people's eyes to the design. I'm very interested in the way the author border the widgets in the sidebar. He leaves a space in each square in the sidebar. Hence, the sidebar looks not only outstanding and tidy but also airy. On the front page, the first post is put on a grey box. That is a good choice to ease the contrast between the background and content. I wish that all the post on the homepage could have that style, too.
General design
In general, Writee has a decent look, classic style.
Other elements
The author mainly uses classic and neutral color: black and white. They are a safe choice for a website. To make some highlight, he adds orange for the word "category" and some colorful social icons in the sidebar.
The only default font in this theme is Popin with different size and styles. This font is clear and easy to read but I still prefer a theme with more than 1 font to be less boring and repetitive.
The header is made to be straightforward but still has all important factors like top menu, title, and social icons. Indeed, I see that the header is not attractive enough. Yet the slider successfully saves the design. It has 2 layouts: full-width or box. Both of 2 layouts look good and impressive. In addition, the slider will be faded if you hover, which is easier for the reader to see the title and information. It's also very convenient to switch to the next slide. You can directly drag to change, click the navigation buttons on the slider or those under the slider.
Slider
Next, it has a footer column on a grey background. This design makes the footer easy to read and different from the body part as well. The title of each widget is put on black boxes, which gives me a sense of neat. One more thing I like about this WordPress blog theme is the quick scroll button to help me scroll up to the top immediately.
Footer
There are different kinds of demo equivalent to different layout and structure. There are list structure or 2 columns-grid structure, box layout, right or left sidebar. Whatever the layout is, I still find the design is reasonable and nice.
Types of demo
Last words, the only thing I don't like much is the single post page design. The line spacing is quite narrow so it's hard to keep on reading. And I feel a bit messy with the bottom area. I think the author uses shouldn't use so many lines and squares here.
The single post design
Responsive
When I used this WordPress theme in different devices like PC, laptop, tablet and smartphone, it displays very nice without any mistake at all. You can check the responsive design in this site: ami.responsivedesign.is.
