This Theme Thursday, we’re introducing a new free theme: Dyad.
Dyad pairs text and images in a balanced, dynamic layout, making it perfect for blogs where words and photographs need equal weight. Featured Images are displayed in different sizes and dimensions, depending on screen size and device.
Dyad is a fork of Receptar, a theme by WebMan Design.
Check out Dyad in the Theme Showcase!

Thanks for sharing this. ‘Looking forward to trying it out. Looks great!
Yeah…!!!! Nice Theme,
Looks Great and attractive!
Great and itis so tempting how the food is arranged and the colors. Kudos.
Not really suited for my own blog, but I really like this design. The layout looks really great.
Love this theme!
Beautiful!
Would like to try it if I would not be so afraid of playing with themes and understood better the “language (sticky , featured and so on)” 😉
This theme looks amazing! I wish I had a food blog or something with amazing photos to use for it though. 🙂
It is quite amazing! Thanks for creating it and making it available for free. I’m already using it in one of my sites 🙂
A nice theme.
I thought I’d offer just one minor suggestion. Consider adding a little definition/border between each of the text (and affiliated photo) boxes… as long as it’s consistent, I don’t believe it would detract from the cleanliness of the overall look.
I find it slightly visually confusing (requiring extra effort on the viewer’s part), making it somewhat taxing to quickly see which text goes with which photo — especially, since these alternate text left/photo right & photo left/text right — in each row.
Just an opinion; on the whole, a nice, functional theme.
Good work Webman.
I agree, just started to use it and making little tweaks and trying to figure how to make the sticky posts 3 across as shown in the demo instead of the default setting.
I just checked out your site – it’s looking good! 🙂
The theme will show your blog posts three across when your browser window is at least 1600px wide. If it’s narrower, the blog posts will show two across instead, so there’s enough room for your content.
Thank you very much Laurel.
Thanks for the suggestion! We’ll consider that in a future enhancement. 🙂
very nice Laurel
Pretty slick theme. I just activated it and out of the box it formats nicely. My favorite theme of all 2015.
Very nice new free theme! Good to have an alternative to the “minimalist blog themes” that have been the norm lately.
Nice…thanks for sharing it
Very nice theme
I like it a lot. Will probably use it for a blog that I am going to do for stuff going on in my local area. Thanks 🙂
Although this theme would not really fit my blog very well, I like how it looks.
Well done team….. another awesome design! Will use it in 2016 since it perfectly suits my needs, to be able to showcase the work, & is sort of similar to my existing ‘board walk’ theme.
Great for a library Website, I think! Thanks for keeping on! 🙂
I really like this new theme! The new themes have for quite some time been quite boring and look-alike I think, so this one really pops out. In a very good way! I’ve just switched to it so I still have possibilities left to explore, which I’m looking forward to do.
I really like it but I’m afraid this theme is gonna be too slow to open.
Great for me
Thank you for Dyad. It was love for the first sight 🙂 .
I’m just loving this theme. I’m going to Wp right now and try it now on my own blog.
Cool!
Looks like the perfect theme for keeping all those recipes!
I’m using this theme on my new blog and love it. I did have a small issue, where instead of the featured posts I had a page header with the featured image from the most recent post. This seems to have sorted itself out now though.
Superb! Great job
I like it! It’s Attractive for me
I love it! It’s not the right fit for my blog, but I’m looking forward to seeing it displayed around the place! ❤
great job!!
I want to use for my site http://www.resultstreet.net/
cool design..i like theme for my new website
Fabulous !!!!
Nice! But not to be used if you have a blog with a lot of comments from your readers. The grayish text of the comments, on a black background, is hardly readable. They don´t invite to participate in the discussion.
I can’t find Dyad when searching for new Themes, is it for WordPress-Blogs only? I’m using self-hosted WP Blogs..

The theme has been submitted to WordPress.org, but it will take some time for it to be available for download there.
In the meantime, you can download Dyad for self hosted sites on this page: https://theme.wordpress.com/themes/dyad/ 🙂
When you’re logged into your WordPress.com account, a link labelled ‘Download Dyad’ will appear in the bottom of the right-hand column.
Aaww, Thank you so much! 🙂
Congratulations and the best of luck it’s beautiful.
I used Dyad for my blog, love it ! https://worldfusionchicago.wordpress.com/

Great looking theme 🙂
Lovely one indeed
Can’t wait to try this theme 🙂 .
Wow, this is a great theme to show off some nice photography!
Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for!
Wow, great free theme. Beautiful, modern, clean, crisp and well-organized look. This theme can undoubtedly compete with any premium theme.
