About ProteusThemes

Why We Do What We Do?

Most WordPress themes available today are multi-purpose, trying to be everything for everyone. This makes them slower, harder to work with, and you normally have to invest a lot of energy to learn how to use them. You also have to design every page from scratch before the final website looks good and this is a very time-consuming process. Why buy a theme if you have to do all the heavy lifting yourself at the end?
Our philosophy is the exact opposite. We strive for simplicity, thoughtful niche designs, and essential features small business owners really care about.

We are on a mission to help you deliver beautiful and powerful websites faster.

How It All Started

ProteusThemes started in summer 2012, as an idea of two freelancers – Primož (the developer) and Jaka (the designer).

Before co-founding ProteusThemes, Primož was building WordPress websites for clients. His biggest issue was that most of the themes available were badly coded, not suitable for business websites, painfully slow, and hard to work with. At the same time, his clients wanted to have a good looking website – as soon as possible.

To make his work easier and deliver websites clients wanted – he decided to develop his own theme. He joined forces with Jaka, the lead designer. In early 2013 they launched their first theme called HairPress on the ThemeForest marketplace. It quickly became a huge success.

Since then, ProteusThemes have launched their own store and keeps on growing.
