Top Flat Design Themes

Billed as a continuing web design trend for 2015, flat themes are popular with both developers and users for a number of reasons. A trend that’s seen a bit of a revival over the last few years, flat design has the benefit of being a simple, clean way to lay out a website and makes the product or service the point of focus, not a flashy design.

That’s not to say flat design is boring as that certainly isn’t the case, it just means that a lot of the visual bells and whistles you see in other designs are removed, leaving a subtle aesthetic that doesn’t detract from the website’s content. We’ve rounded up ten of our favourite flat themes to share with you today, to give you some inspiration if you’re thinking of redesigning your site to fit in with this trend.
