Vellum is an editorial WordPress theme for studios that design buildings and the lives inside them. It ships with three complete home layouts — Interior, Architecture and Studio — each with its own rhythm, palette and dark mode. Everything is built on the native block editor: no page builder, no required plugins, no lock-in.
Show your work through rich project case studies, win the brief with a built-in quote estimator, and manage every section from plain wp-admin — never from code.
