Our latest addition to the Format theme roundup is called Spruce, and it’s a big change from our current theme selection. With a unique grid-based layout and super-clean menu bar that seamlessly integrates navigation into your website without added clutter, Spruce is ideal for those who want all eyes on their work.
We’ve already seen some amazing results since releasing Spruce to our community. From photographers to artists, this theme is providing a backbone for some incredible online portfolios. We’ve selected a few of our favorites here.
Get inspired by these five well-designed portfolios, and try out Spruce for yourself.
