Joomla Template Organica

Its time to toot our own horn (or however that saying goes) … Earlier this month Joomla Bamboo released a template called Organica. The theme incorporates some pretty slick jQuery effects such as a horizontal accordion, a module slider, the superfish menu, an accordion-like panel menu and the equal heights column script for some great looking but simple sub page layouts.

The design itself uses a percentage layout for the front page and a percentage or fixed width layout for sub pages. This is a new thing for us as most of the themes we created in 2008 were varied but fixed width. I tend to prefer fixed width layouts given that they are 100% controllable but there is a lot of good evidence and chatter about the benefits and improvement to accessibility that percentage/fluid width layouts provide.

The overriding concept for the theme was to create a clean, organic feel within a minimal framework. The background images come courtesy of BittBox and really help to cement the clean winter feel of the site. You can choose between one tree background and three separate bird inspired themes.
