Basho - A Creative HTML5 Template for Freelancers & Agencies Latest Version
HTML Templates Themeforest 4.8 (1.2K reviews)
Basho is a creative HTML5 template built for freelancers, design firms, and web agencies that want a modern, minimal, and elegant online presence. It is for designers, illustrators, writers, and studios who need a portfolio or business site that looks intentional without feeling heavy. The template comes with carefully crafted, ready-to-use pages that cover the essentials: portfolio layouts, about pages, blog layouts, and utility pages. Every page is designed to save time during setup, so you can drop in your own content and launch quickly. Overall, the look is clean and refined, with typography and spacing that give your work room to breathe. It is fully responsive and retina ready, so it stays sharp on phones, tablets, and high-resolution screens. The code follows modern standards, so you can build a site that feels solid across browsers. You can showcase a few select projects or run a multi-page agency site; the structure holds up either way.
For the portfolio side, Basho includes three different homepage variants, so you can pick the one that fits the story you want to tell. The masonry portfolio is sortable, letting visitors filter work by category, and you can choose from two, three, four, five, or six column layouts with large, small, or no margins. That level of control makes it easy to adjust the density of your gallery. There are also four project page layouts for individual case studies, plus full-width slider sections that support HTML5 video, YouTube, and Vimeo embeds, along with HTML5 background video. Parallax sections add subtle depth to long pages, and the 40-plus purpose-built content blocks cover everything from team grids to client logos. Because these blocks are prebuilt, you can assemble a page without starting from scratch. You just drop them into place and fill in your own text and images. The flexibility works for a small freelance portfolio or a larger agency showcase.

Blog and content pages get the same attention. There is a standard blog index with a left or right sidebar, a full-width blog index without a sidebar, and single post pages with or without sidebars. This variety lets you match the reading experience to your content. Subscription forms are also included, with an AJAX-driven MailChimp newsletter signup section. About pages come in three layouts, and there are three contact page layouts that include a working AJAX contact form. That form supports dropdowns, radio buttons, and checkboxes, so you can gather the exact information you need from visitors. On the navigation side, Basho offers left or center-aligned headers, dropdown menus, a mobile menu, and two more distinctive options: side navigation and overlay navigation, both with animation effects. These can be positioned on the right or left. You can set up a conventional menu, or go with something that feels more like a designed interaction, and it all stays consistent with the visual style.
Beyond the main pages, Basho includes the practical pages that every real site eventually needs. There is a 404 not found page, a 500 error page, and a maintenance mode page, so you are covered when things go wrong or when you are working on the site. The template also bundles over 400 Entypo icons, which give you a consistent visual language for buttons, bullet points, and social links. On top of that, there are more than 20 reusable components, such as accordions, tabs, sliders, and other interface elements, all built to drop into any page with minimal fuss. These components are supported by over 8 plugins, so the heavy lifting is already handled. The code itself is valid HTML5 and put together with care, which means you are starting from a clean, organized base. Instead of patching together multiple plugins and styles from different sources, you get one cohesive package where everything is designed to work together.
