Still searching for Adobe Muse architecture templates in 2026? We first published this page in 2018 with a single Muse template. However, Adobe ended Muse technical support on 26 March 2020, so a Muse template is a dead end for a new site. Therefore, we rebuilt the page around 12 HTML and WordPress alternatives, 11 of them updated in 2026. Four are static templates, and eight are WordPress themes for architects and interior designers. This week we checked the price, rating and last update of each one on ThemeForest.

What happened to Adobe Muse?

Adobe stopped adding new features to Muse on 26 March 2018. Two years later, on 26 March 2020, technical support ended as well. According to Adobe, Creative Cloud All Apps subscribers can still open Muse. However, Adobe no longer ships compatibility updates for macOS or Windows, and it no longer fixes publishing bugs.

Hosting went away too. In-browser editing of Muse sites ended on 31 July 2020, and Business Catalyst hosting closed on 26 March 2021. Adobe’s end-of-service page names no direct replacement. Instead, it points designers to Adobe XD for designing and prototyping website layouts, and to Adobe Portfolio for portfolio sites.

So what can a Muse user do? Muse can still export a site as HTML files through File, Export as HTML. That gives you static pages, not an editable design in a maintained tool. None of these templates or themes can import a .muse file, so you rebuild the site in the one you choose. A ready-made design still gives that rebuild a head start.

How to replace a Muse architecture site

First, choose between two routes. A static HTML template works like a Muse export: plain files that run on any host, with no database to maintain. However, you edit every page in the code. A WordPress theme adds a dashboard and a visual page builder such as Elementor. As a result, you can change text and images without touching code, but you must keep WordPress and its plugins updated.

Then check three facts on the item page: the last update, the rating against the number of reviews and, for WordPress, the Software Version field. For example, a 5.00 from three reviews says less than a 4.74 from 66. Finally, note that Cons, the Muse template this page listed in 2018, still has a ThemeForest page. Yet it needs Muse to edit, so we removed it from the list.

Static HTML templates closest to a Muse site

Bauen from DuruThemes is the best-rated static template in our list, with a 4.95 rating from 38 reviews and 1,264 sales. It ships 25 home versions, split between dark and light styles, plus 50 inner pages. DuruThemes also moved it to Bootstrap 5 and last updated it on 27 March 2026. It costs $39. Note that the Bauen WordPress theme further down is a different product from another author.

Prague from fox-themes is the cheapest template here with a real sales record: $19, a 4.80 rating and 879 sales. Its quiet, minimal layouts keep the attention on the projects, while Isotope filters sort the portfolio grid. The author last updated it on 4 August 2026. If you plan to move to WordPress later, fox-themes also sells a Prague WordPress theme.

Framehaus from wpoceans is the newest static template here, released in August 2026 and updated on 9 August. The homepage opens with a full-bleed project slider, so finished work carries the page. Each of its two homepages ships as a multi-page site and a single-page scroller, with GSAP animation. However, it has only three sales and no rating yet. It costs $17.

Bauhaus from paul_tf has been on sale since 2017 and has sold 1,213 copies at a 4.66 rating. Its calm, minimal layouts focus on projects, with three home variants, 16 pages and working contact forms. However, the last update arrived on 26 December 2024, the only one here older than 2026. Test the scripts before launch. It costs $25.

WordPress themes with a proven record

The Bauen WordPress theme from webRedox holds 3,042 sales at a 4.74 rating, the largest record among the dedicated architecture themes here. It also offers one-page and multi-page layouts, WooCommerce and Arabic RTL demos, on Elementor or WPBakery. webRedox updated it on 1 September 2026, and it lists WordPress 7.0. It costs $69.

Inteco from GoodLayers has the best rating of any WordPress theme here, 4.95 across 1,701 sales. Its layouts target interior designers and architects, and it works with WooCommerce and WPML. GoodLayers updated it on 12 August 2026, and the listing now includes WordPress 7.0. However, at $89 it shares the top price on this page.

Archi from OceanThemes has 9,451 sales at a 4.57 rating, the highest sales volume on this page. It now runs on Elementor, with interior design and architecture demos beside its multipurpose layouts. OceanThemes updated it on 14 April 2026, and the listing includes WordPress 7.0. At $59 it is also one of the cheaper proven themes here.

Cassio from ArtemSemkin loads every page over AJAX, so moving between projects never triggers a full reload. Its sliders and parallax grids suit architecture and interior portfolios. It rates 4.87 across 636 sales and lists WordPress 7.0. ArtemSemkin last updated it on 2 July 2026, and it costs $69. It fits best when the portfolio is the whole website.

Newer architecture WordPress themes from 2025 and 2026

Aachen from Mikado-Themes gives architectural photography the whole screen, with a numbered, full-bleed project slider on the homepage. It lists WordPress 6.7 to 7.0 and works with Elementor and WooCommerce. However, it has 53 sales and no rating yet, and the last update came on 4 March 2026. At $89 it is one of the two most expensive picks.

Form from AncoraThemes covers the whole chain from interior design to building. For example, it ships demos for an interior studio, a furniture shop, a housing complex and a construction company. It runs on Elementor and lists WordPress 7.0, but it has 55 sales and no rating yet. AncoraThemes last updated it on 22 July 2026, and it costs $69.

Mink from WebGeniusLab pairs a dark, editorial interior design layout with a WooCommerce shop. That way, a practice can present projects and sell furniture from one site. It runs on Elementor and lists WordPress 6.9 and 7.0. However, it has 69 sales and no rating yet. WebGeniusLab last updated it on 8 June 2026, and it costs $69.

It is written for architecture practices and interior designers, with full case study pages across nine homepage layouts. It runs on Elementor and lists WordPress 7.0, but it has one sale and a single review, too few for a rating. At $49 it is the cheapest WordPress theme on this page.
