Venosa is a high-performance, responsive WordPress theme designed for News, Magazines, and Professional Blogs. Developed by TouchSize, it focuses on a clean, retina-ready aesthetic that prioritizes content readability and smooth user navigation.
In 2026, Venosa remains a solid choice for digital publishers who need a "modular" layout that can be easily customized to fit various editorial niches, from lifestyle and fashion to tech and travel.
Drag-and-Drop Page Builder: Built with a proprietary layout builder (and optimized for Bootstrap 3.0), allowing you to create complex homepage structures without touching any code.
