Though being a design addict, I have always loved the clean , typography based designs when it comes to blogging.

Because if you want your audience to get engaged with your writing, you need to have a design that highlights content rather than flashy widgets. Minimalist themes are just right fit for a content based blog.

During my journey of blogging, I have come across many minimal WordPress themes which are great and do a great job in highlighting content.  I am using Coraline for planetnaveen.com with little customization done from my side.

In this article, I am providing links for 20 minimal (yet awesome) WordPress themes, so that you can kick start your blogging in 2012 with a clean and minimal design.
