Modernist is based on the design ideas of Jan Tschichold, Josef Müller-Brockmann, Dieter Rams, and other modernists. Supports widgets, is SEO optimized, has clean and documented code, it’s fast to load, and is WordPress 3.0.1 tested. Works in IE 6 & superior and all versions of Safari/Firefox/Opera. Includes CSS3 enhancements.

Simple to install. No plugins required, no extra frameworks required. Just download Modernist, upload it to your server and activate it to make it work.

WordPress 3.0.1 tested. It works with the latest version of WordPress, and also works with previous versions.

Embraces Social Media. Modernist has links to share each post to Twitter, Facebook, Delicious Digg, and Reddit. No plugins needed, it just work out of the box.

Is SEO optimized. Modernist has been carefully handcrafted in order to produce the cleanest HTML/CSS templates you’ll find in a WordPress theme. No unnecessary lines, just pure, semantical, compliant code that Google loves.

Supports widgets. Modernist has a widgetized sidebar, and WordPress’ default widgets are styled. You can also drop your favorite widgets or plugins without needing to touch a single line of code.

Is flexible and extensible. Change the color scheme to suit your own taste. All the code is well commented. Personalize the theme by adding your own header or your own images in the sidebar. Use Typekit/Typotheque font services to serve different fonts and make it look unique!

It is crafted nicely I only can’t find a logic behind the small blue bar on the top of #nav. It can be explainable for the top of the section for me as for separation without taking the attention too much away but as for the nav section according to most design patterns it initially resembles the hover state of one of the nav links but in fact it is just a line and the hover state the getting bold. therefore I believe it is reinvention of a design pattern widely accepted and is confusing.

Thanks for your comment… but I believe it could be confused if its width was the same as the length of the item. In this particular implementation they look similar, but in different installations you can have page titles with different lengths.

Just like about.com…it is simply great! If only I can suggest that you allow more widget areas especially ads widgets within post.

Lots of people want to use themes which allows ads to be wrapped within posts, Top and bottom of post as sidebars…Keep it up!
