This is a great example of where I personally think “themes” will become – a set of block patterns that include images, words, and design elements that work for a specific type of website.

If we look at the history of WordPress themes, so many have been sold because they look like what the user wants. A food blog theme has food words & images, plumber site has plumber words & images, and on and on (and often only in the thumbnails). Of course, just swap the words and images for what your site is and the business category of the theme is often irrelevant.

That’s what I think we’ll see with block pattern packages – they will be offered with a look and feel for types of sites as general users / site builders will looks for block pattern themes that match what they plan to build. But that’s also a good thing as it will help jump-start the DIY website creator and get them past the initial black-page paralysis.
