Today we’re proud to present a brand new free theme, designed especially for large organizations and government by Automattic’s own Michael Arestad.
Big Brother
Big Brother offers a clean and traditional design, multiple color schemes, and support for standard customization features. It’s a professional, readable theme that’s easy to tailor to your organization’s style.
Breadcrumb-style navigation on pages make even the largest sites a breeze to navigate, while the widget area keeps your secondary content close at hand. Start a blog to keep your members up-to-date on current happenings, or use the [sitemap] shortcode to create a quick, centralized location to list all of your organization’s important information.
As always, Big Brother adapts to your screen size, allowing for a pleasant reading experience no matter the device:
You can see Big Brother in action on the demo site, or activate it on your own blog at Appearance → Themes.

Wow I love it, so clean, simple and accessible! :)
Superb! :D
Oh wow, this looks very nice! I was actually looking for a theme of this kind — the only one that looked suitable for my purpose was a theme called Academia, but I was hesitant to use it because the theme is two years old and I wanted something even more modern.
There are a plenty of beautiful blog and business themes available, but there aren’t enough choices for organisations and such — where you need more pages than posts and an easy way to navigate through a complex structure of the site. This new theme is a great addition :-)
I like the clean look.
I like this, so I implemented it but it broke the image galleries. Is there an issue with galleries?
I think that may have been a bug; they should be working now. :) If not, let us know with a link to a page that’s not working. Cheers!
I like the theme, but how well does it integrate social media? Thanks much.
Thanks! You can view the Theme Showcase page for Big Brother to find out how to enable social links in the theme’s footer. You can also link to or embed your social networks in the sidebar area using various widgets, or connect your blog to Publicize to push your posts to different social networks. I hope this helps!
Yes, it does. Thanks much.
The theme looks solid but I’m not entirely thrilled with the name. “Big Brother” for something designed for government? I suppose it’s appropriate in some countries, though…
This is so cool!! ^_^
