eCatholic’s newest free theme offers a refreshing balance of sleek and sophisticated for a versatile website experience that will elevate your content and imagery.

Why make a switch to the Cascia theme today?

1

Flexible homepage feature region with style options.

Your homepage feature region is a design element of notable grandeur. With the ability to add images and videos that stretch across a site, your opening message or highlighted news announcements will not be missed.

Casica provides that same clean spacious area for bold imagery and captivating video. However, if you aren’t quite sure how to fill such a large space, you have options! Select between either a larger region for images that expand across the homepage, or a unique second option with colorful geometric overlays to frame each slide’s title and action button.

Stunning Sections with animation and variety

When selecting Cascia, we recommend activating Section Layouts to get the most versatile design and stunning composition for your content. As you add more sections and modules you'll notice subtle animation that adds just a touch more excitement for visitors navigating your site. Scroll over drop-down menu titles, buttons, and news entries to see the animations at work.

Using Sections Layouts, you may also notice a unique variety of sections and module types. For example, choose between horizontal or vertical styled news and event feeds when selecting a section or a content module. Plus, notice the continued use of geometric shapes, overlays, and bold color making each date and headline stand out.

Flecks of color and shapes for a unique style

Additional accents and pops of style can really complete a theme while also adding variety and function to site content. Cascia does exactly this! Fashioned with floating triangles near module and page titles, this new theme helps separate and break up content.

Drawing on the same geometric style, even a special background watermark symbolizing a cross is nestled mid-way down the homepage. All of these finishing touches truly create a sleek design from top to bottom.
