Stylish simplicity and navigational clarity work together in this theme to provide exactly what the name implies: a crisp and clean user interface. White, open space makes way for the homepage’s two uniquely-designed custom galleries, both of which will instantly intrigue the viewer. Dominated by a striking three-way image slider, the homepage is an opportunity to showcase products in an artistic way or, if you want, to use three related images to evoke a product’s story or feel within the customer’s mind.

The image slider at the base of the page is simpler, but its use of reversing arrows as controllers adds a contemporary touch.

Amazon-style menus provide subnavigation, but in untraditional fashion. Menus open up to large, multi-column submenus where styles collections or categories can be compared side by side. The size of the submenus leaves room for clarity, so the viewer won’t be squinting their eyes, opening window after window of tiny submenus to find what they need.

On the product pages, free Lightbox gallery integration is included to display large images of your items.
