Obsius, developed by Edge Themes (part of the Qode Interactive ecosystem), is a high-concept Creative Agency WordPress Theme that prioritizes avant-garde aesthetics and bold motion design. It is specifically built for digital studios, branding agencies, and creative portfolios that want to break away from standard "corporate" layouts.
In 2026, it is widely recognized for its "brutalist" minimalism—using large typography, high-contrast black-and-white palettes, and experimental grid systems.
Elementor Page Builder: Fully integrated with Elementor, featuring a massive library of custom "Edge" widgets designed specifically for cinematic agency showcases.
Advanced Parallax & Scroll Effects: Obsius uses hardware-accelerated animations to create deep parallax layers, horizontal scrolling sections, and "reveal" animations on text and images.
Creative Portfolio Lists: Offers unique layouts such as Interactive Hover Previews (where project images follow the mouse), Split Screen Sliders, and Vertical Showcase Lists.
Custom Cursor Interactions: Includes a dynamic mouse cursor that morphs and changes color based on what the user is hovering over, enhancing the site's "app-like" feel.
High-End Typography: Optimized for massive headline fonts and editorial-style text blocks that remain sharp and legible even on ultra-wide 5K displays.
Adaptive Image Loading: Features a sophisticated image scaling system that delivers the smallest possible file size based on the user's screen resolution without losing clarity.

The "Boutique" Edge: Obsius is designed for agencies that sell "high-end" services. The theme’s focus on negative space and smooth AJAX page transitions creates an atmosphere of luxury and technical competence.
Interactive Storytelling: The theme excels at "Case Studies." It allows you to build long-form, scrolling stories that combine video backgrounds, animated statistics, and large-scale imagery.
Customization Depth: Through the extensive Edge Options panel, you can control everything from the "Smooth Scroll" intensity to the specific SVG icons used for your menu.
Installation: Upload the obsius.zip file via Appearance > Themes.
Edge Core Plugin: You must install the "Obsius Core" plugin. This unlocks the specific portfolio post types and the custom Elementor widgets.
One-Click Demo Import: Choose from the "Main Agency," "Interactive Portfolio," or "Design Studio" demos. Note: Ensure your server's memory_limit is set to at least 256M for a smooth import.
Portfolio Settings: Use the "Portfolio Project" post type to enable the interactive hover effects. You can set a "Featured Image" for the list view and a "Gallery" for the project page itself.
