The new year brings a new website template, and this one is inspired by the 2000s. The era was renowned for being kitschy, colorful, and chaotic, and the rules of traditional graphic design and typography were broken. This translates well into the corresponding music styles rising out of that timeframe: punk, emo, and hip hop in particular.
If you’ve been looking for a website design that will make your music fans take notice, try our ‘Beatrice’ template. This design offers fun new customization options, giving you the ability to create a visually stunning website that draws on interesting textures, shapes, and imagery.
Bold header imagery
Your header has never been more customizable with multiple borders, backgrounds,and text options to experiment with. So if you have a big bold header image and strong color palette, this theme is for you.
Customizable Content Borders
Tailor the appearance of your content sections and make them pop by adding borders. Then adjust their width and color on both mobile and desktop. Thick borders in contrasting colors can draw attention and create separation between different sections of your website.
This contrast helps highlight each segment, making it easier for visitors to tell different sections apart while scrolling down your pages.
Negative Spacing
Another first that ‘Beatrice’ offers is the ability to set negative letter spacing on your site title and give it a condensed, abstract feel. Make a striking first impression with a large title when visitors first land on your page, with your site title gradually getting smaller as they scroll down, placing their focus back onto the content.
New fonts to style your text
The right font will reinforce the vibe you’re trying to convey with your website. Choosing a distinct font for your text logo and section titles is an important way to set up your custom branding. We’ve added 12 new fonts that align with the look and feel of this template - you can try those any time to see if one works for you.
Theme Variations
We designed 6 variations of ‘Beatrice’, giving you a range of options to explore and find a preset design that aligns perfectly with your aesthetic. Considering your music genre or personal style, you might discover a variant that fits perfectly, with no tweaking needed. If not, you can select any style variation and customize its colors and fonts to suit your vibe.
Elegant: The soft, pastel earth tones create a sense of calm and relaxation. This variation is perfect for more ambient styles of music like house, lounge, and trance.
Bold: “Bold” is the definitely right word to describe this variation of ‘Beatrice’ – the classic combination of hot pink and black immediately grabs your visitors’ attention and lets them know you’re ready to rock. Perfect for a punk or pop-rock band.
Sombre: If you’re a metal band or rapper, this dark variation of ‘Beatrice’ could be perfect for you. Set a brooding, ominous tone with rich dark reds and black as your color palette. The contrast of red text on a black background makes your site title and menu pop.
Minimal: This variation is adorned with soft purples and blues, projecting a sense of serenity and refinement. The color scheme harmonizes with genres like contemporary jazz, ambient electronica, and dream pop, giving off a tranquil and sophisticated vibe.
Neutral: Create a sleek and retro-inspired home online using the ‘Neutral’ variant. Featuring a classic black-and-white color palette and a nod to 1980s video game fonts, this design delivers an edgy and nostalgic tone – a perfect complement to music genres like synthwave, retrowave, and EDM.
Playful: Unleash your creativity with this vibrant design. Showing off a bright mix of blue, yellow, and pink alongside a charming decorative serif font, the ‘playful’ variant adds whimsical energy to your website. This lively design pairs wonderfully with genres like indie pop, funk, and house.
