Brizy is a relatively new WordPress page builder plugin that has quickly gained a following among developers and WordPress fans. Thanks to its ease of use, logical methodology and range of top class Brizy templates, this page builder is set to change the way we build websites.
This page will introduce Brizy and show you a little of what it is capable of. We will also showcase a range of Brizy templates from Astra to use with your new page builder. Web templates that combine the best of what Astra can deliver with what is possible with a page builder of this calibre.
Finally, we will show you where to get Brizy, how to install it and how to download Brizy templates so you can use them to build a professional-looking website.
What Is the Brizy Page Builder?
Brizy page builder is a newcomer to the page building scene and is challenging the rule of the incumbents. If you’re a fan of Elementor, Beaver Builder or Divi Builder, there’s a new kid in town called Brizy.
Like those other page builders, Brizy uses drag and drop and menu functionality to help build web pages without having to touch a single line of code.
Select a page element, drag it into position, change the size, colour and features and move on to the next. Rinse and repeat until your page is complete.
Most page builders work in the same way but Brizy does things a little differently. Rather than relying purely on a sidebar menu, each page element you work with has its own menu.
Select the element from the resources tab, drag it into position and use the element’s own menu to configure everything else. It’s a small difference but an important one.
Key Features of the Brizy Page Builder
What makes Brizy stand out from the crowd? What makes it worth using instead of Elementor or Beaver Builder?
- Ease of use – Page builders by their very nature are designed to make building web pages as easy as possible. Brizy takes that a step further by adding customization options to each individual element. This gives you fast, easy access to all the tweaks you need.
- Uncluttered interface – With features come clutter and that’s true of any user interface. Brizy has done a great job of minimizing the fuss and frippery in the UI. Tools are easy to find, menus and navigation are logical and the entire experience has been very well thought out.
- Vast array of tools – Despite the straightforward UI, there are still over 150 different elements and options you can use to decorate your web page. Each can be used as-is or customized to suit your exact needs.
- Responsive – Every website has to be responsive and both Astra and Brizy deliver on that. Pages can even be viewed in real time to see how it will look on all screen sizes.
- Code-free webpage creation – Finally, the goal of every page builder is to lower the barrier to entry when building websites and remove the need to know code. Whether you use free Brizy templates or the many Brizy pro templates, you won’t need to touch a single line of CSS or HTML!
Brizy and Brizy Pro
The Brizy page builder comes as a free WordPress plugin but there is also a premium version. The free version has most of the tools you would need to build professional looking pages.
Brizy Pro adds more page templates, video tools, popup builder tools, custom fonts, dynamic content tools and a lot of marketing tools like ConvertKit integration and Drip feed content options.
There is also Brizy Cloud, a hosted platform like Wix where your website is built, managed and hosted on Brizy’s own CDN.
So that’s what Brizy is, now let us see some templates that utilize the page builder!
The Best Brizy Page Builder Themes From Astra

Wedding Invitation
Wedding Invitation is another simple but very effective Brizy landing page template. This time for weddings. A full size header image with descriptive text tells you all you need to know. Scroll down for well-designed content blocks that tell an unfolding story as you flow down the page.
At the end, you know everything you need to know about the wedding, which is the whole point of the landing page. It’s a superb design that would need minimal tweaking to suit many requirements!

You could either use the page as-is or add the optional elements available in Astra and Brizy to build a longer or more detailed page.
Life Coach

Hotel sets the scene perfectly with a header image of a hotel room, clean white font and a blue contrast colour.

A course description section and sample video does the conversion while pricing elements help clinch the deal. This is a strong Brizy landing page template that could easily be expanded into a full website with very little effort.
Personal Dietitian
Personal Dietitian mimics some of the existing life coach and nutrition websites already out there while making a better first impression. The page contains minimal content as the intent is to get the reader to call for a consultation. Modest content blocks, colourful images and excellent colour choices make that happen.
This could be used as a simple landing page template or built out into a full website within a couple of hours.
Charity
If you’re at all familiar with some of the many charity websites out there, you will know that the Charity web template nails it. The look, the feel and the emotional intent are all spot on.

Sweet Shop
Sweet Shop is a bakery website template that uses fun as its selling point. Flowing fonts, attractive imagery, strong colour contrasts and images of sweet things all combine to create a relaxed, fun atmosphere that you actively want to engage with.
A professional-looking About page, attractive gallery and Our Cakes section and a clean Contact page make up what is a simple but very effective website suitable for all kinds of outlets.
Spa
Spa is a very relaxed Brizy template ideal for its intended use. The calm font, serene colour choices and strong but subtle images create the right feel for such a page. The alternating white and colour backgrounds act as natural page dividers while flexible content blocks let you add or remove services as required.
The contrast colours can easily be changed to suit your brand and there is plenty of opportunity to add your own flair to what is an already superb design.
Agency
Agency is another clean, modern template with Brizy at its core. A mixture of subtle green and blue with white and grey background sets the mind at ease while a mixture of great quality images showcase your work enough to make the conversion.

This is a very contemporary design with the right balance of accessibility and gravitas you would expect from a financial adviser.
Freelancer

Multimed Clinic

Supplementary content is below the fold using content blocks that can be added or removed as required. Further page elements can add flavour or be removed to keep things simple.

Psychiatrist
Psychiatrist does things slightly differently. It has a strong header image but has the menu underneath instead of at the top of the page. This works well in this Brizy template as it’s a sticky menu that remains on page as you scroll. The rest of the page is attractive, with the dark background and light boxed layout with contrasting content blocks.
The theme works exceptionally well for its target market and creates the right first impression while unfolding the story about who you are and what you do. Another Astra theme that would need minimal customization to begin working.

It’s a flexible theme that could be added to simply by dragging and dropping page elements with Brizy. It could equally be left as is or customized to fit your brand.
Agency
This Agency template is completely different from the other template of the same name and is largely white with a subtle blue contrast. A strong header image and headline can showcase your business with ease while further down the page you can build on your story with service elements, a portfolio, reference logos, testimonials and any other content you want to include.

Personal Fitness Trainer
Personal Fitness Trainer is another very carefully considered Brizy template that has its target market firmly in mind. Starting with a characterful header image and fonts, the theme flows logically to who you are, what you do, how you do it and how much it costs.
A mix of dark and light backgrounds, flat design and modern fonts makes this a compelling template that could work for male, female or mixed trainers or gyms.
Electrician
Electrician is a very competent Brizy landing page template. It places the enquiry form front and centre for qualified visitors and tells your story down the page for those seeing you for the first time. Like most Astra themes, it has excellent use of white space, contrasting content blocks and modern fonts that create exactly the impression you would expect in the industry.
Nice graphics for the services section add personality while conversion continues with the Why Choose Us section, ending in the contact form. It’s a well-balanced electrician web design that really hits the mark.

Gardening & Landscaping is a very clean and attractive web design. It uses the green colour well to create a relaxed environment from which you can tell your story. A strong headline calls the visitor to action while the content blocks outline products and services while also making your case.

Construction
Construction is one of many flat contemporary Brizy templates for Astra that make an immediate visual impact. The crisp fonts, strong orange contrast colour, stark dark and light backgrounds and image boxes all make an impact combining to build a great looking web page.
The service list, portfolio section and extra page elements all help tell the story while the strong orange call to action box should work wonders for conversion.
Hotel & BnB
The Hotel & BnB template balances classic design with modernity to create an attractive design that should appeal to a wide audience. A strong header image showcasing a hotel room, strong header with modern font and lots of white space create an upscale impression with no effort whatsoever.
Further down the page, the amenities section is another strong point while the facilities graphics stand out in a minimalist but informative way. This is another template that would need minimal customization to fit almost any brand.
Coach
The Coach template is built around a motivational speaker but could easily be customized to suit any kind of trainer, speaker or coach. A strong header image adds personality while the blue colour adds trust and easy appeal. Strong sans serif fonts and colour blocks stand out from the page and helps build authority.

Below the fold, the page continues to tell your story with opportunities to upsell courses or products and add social proof, a biography and anything else you might like to add to your page.
Artist
This is the second artist theme with Brizy at its heart but is completely different. This Artist is a cleaner, lighter and more contemporary theme with a less impactful first impression. If you’re after a more subtle look, this template delivers.
It displays excellent use of white space, subtle white grey and blue colours, distinct content blocks and has a much more low key character. If this matches your brand, it would require very little customization to put together.
Charity
This Charity theme uses multiple bright colours and a mix of dark and light backgrounds to add a real character to the page. They combine to create a light hearted appeal while still delivering a sensible message.
The distinct content blocks tell the story of who you are and what you do while also using emotive imagery to help engage. It’s a modern but universally appealing template that could work wonders for your own charity.
Makeup Artist
Makeup Artist is crisp and modern with a feminine element thanks to the vibrant pink colour throughout the page. The mixture of fonts makes a personable impression while the header images leaves no doubt about what the page is trying to say.
Further down the page you have a mixture of light grey and white backgrounds with differing content blocks, pink headers and dark content with a bright call to action banner. A pricing block completes the look. It’s a very competent template that tells it exactly as it is.
Residential and Commercial Cleaning
Residential and Commercial Cleaning is our final Brizy landing page template. It’s another modern design with strong header image, contrasting colours, nice balance and the right mix of elements this type of website requires.
The strong contrast colour could easily be changed to suit your brand while customized icons are ideal for cleaning. Extra content blocks list services, service areas, testimonials and everything a visitor needs to convert.
