Create a place online that welcomes and invites people inside.

When our team talks about websites, we often refer to them as another set of front doors to an organization - a digital way to enter into and experience your mission and values. Offer a place that is refreshing and welcoming to visitors with a design both bright and calming such as the latest free theme, Olivet.

Olivet will transform your website and create a beautiful place to enter in with its soft color palette, earth tones, and elegant font choices.

Contemporary touch with motion and shadows

Include a little contemporary touch, as Olivet introduces design accents that make navigation and content more fun and appealing as visitors click through resources, and move about interior pages.

Notice the shadowing and angled motion of buttons when hovered over, for a fun effect. Get creative with the layout of calendar entries as Olivet arranges your module images, descriptions, and dates in a collage-like layout that is both eye-catching and unique.

Olivet design example: Hover animations provide motion and visual interest for your site visitors.

Large Homepage media and adjustable navigation

Offer your visitors a truly stunning welcome with a homepage that has extra large space for rotating images or video. Imagery and media are a simple and most effective way to really catch the attention of others and offer them a true look at your organization’s church, school, or campus.

Think about some of the best scenes and views of your physical space, and share those with others to experience from anywhere.

Olivet design example: Large feature region and adjustable navigation bar provide style and flair.

If a beautiful first impression through images and video wasn't enough, you can also toggle your navigation menu and site title to the left or right side of your website. Talk about a customizable experience!

Refreshing neutral color palette

Colors evoke emotions and increase the visual enjoyment of objects and spaces. Olivet’s choice of color palettes offers softer tones that are rooted in nature. These options work well to elevate whatever content will be placed within your website, as well as create a calming essence around modules and sections.

Encourage people to stay a little longer on your website with soothing and welcoming pigments that look great on all devices.
