ST Nagara, one of our most wanted theme, inspired by the famous giant BBC has been converted to a responsive Drupal 7 theme.
New techniques
In this version, we have apply a new typography which makes the text more readable and the overall look cleaner. And ofcourse, the best part is responsiveness; the website layout responds to displaying devices.
Taking a block from the homepage for example. As you can see, in the large mode, the article images are located on the left and the article titles are on the right. In a more narrow display, the images and text would be too small if we keep this layout. Therefore, we enlarge the image to cover the whole space and push the titles below it.

ST Khen is our first completed Drupal 7 theme for travel companies and agencies. Named after a special musical instrument of a tribe in Northwest mountain in Vietnam, this theme has pre configured content which a tourist agent should have: "About" to introduce the company, "Tours" to display available tours, "Destinations" to highlight tourist attractions and "Blog" to post interesting articles.

Responsive web design is a new concept introduced by A List Apart. In this article, Ethan Marcotte has emphasized:

It is already four months after Drupal 7 was released. We can wait no more, this is the Drupal 7 version of Alphorn, one of our popular free Drupal themes.
Alphorn is the first free Drupal theme that Symphony introduced 1.5 years ago. It is quite popular among Drupal community. We had many requests for the Drupal 7 theme version of Alphorn but it could not be released right after Drupal 7 was released. It is because we have to wait for some essential modules such as Skinr and Fusion.
