Is this theme for me?
- ✓ Visual editorial websites
- ✓ Image-led publications
- ✓ Design & lifestyle projects
- ✓ Membership sites
- ✗ Text-only publications
- ✗ Minimal one-column blogs
Daigo is made for visual editorial projects that need strong image treatment and flexible post presentation. It suits fashion, design, architecture, lifestyle, culture, and other publications where photos and layout variety are part of the reading experience.
Choose Daigo if you want a polished publication with multiple header styles, featured sections, memberships, and room for visual rhythm across the homepage and posts. It is less suited to text-only writing or very plain one-column blogs that do not need image-led layouts.
