DePo Square is a beautiful, simple WordPress theme that provides Tumblr-like capacity to post photos and videos in the stream of your posts.
Designed by well-known web identity Derek Powazek, DePo Square is a minimalist-looking theme with elegant typography and effective functionality.
To use the theme ala Tumblr, you simply map your categories so as to allow you to use five pre-defined post types — Post (default), Status, Quote, Link, or Photo — and your content will be displayed in a format special to those types.
Just select your category mappings by visiting the “Current Theme Options” under “Appearance.” No CSS or other formatting is necessary.
The theme also has a neat widget space in the top header, allowing site owners to mix navigation with updates from Twitter and Flickr.

Doc is an unashamedly minimalist WordPress theme, and that’s where its appeal lies. It’s all about writing and reading.
The theme places all emphasis on content. In fact, its one-column design demands that you focus directly on what’s in front of you, not the shiny icons to your left or right. If it weren’t for the subtle references to comments below each theme, you could almost be convinced you were reading right from your word processor.
Once you scroll to the bottom of the page, you’ll notice all the comforts of a well-rounded theme: blogroll, categories and search box. The beauty of this blog design is its simplicity. It will be a nice change of pace for your visitors. Its effective use of white space keeps it from looking boring or amateurish.

Satorii is a single-column WordPress theme with a minimalist, elegant and clean style.
The theme is built on the back of the well-known Sandbox theme, the Yahoo User Interface CSS and jQuery javascript, which makes it easy to customise or add new features — some of them are automatic zebra tables and automatic FancyBox added to image links, plus a useful reply to comments effect.
Plus, it has everything that a complete WordPress should have: support for tags, galleries and captions, Gravatar, localization (so you can create your own translation editing just one file), an image template, and, of course, widgets.
Satorii has beautiful typography and an extremely well styled comments area. The theme is very flexible and would suit multiple purposes.
