Why Create Custom WordPress Layouts
You’ll find a number of premium WordPress themes that offer several stunning built-in layouts, which are ready to be used right away. You can definitely opt for these beautiful layouts and give your site an appealing look.

That means if you’re using a prebuilt layout for your WordPress site, you won’t be able to give a distinct look unless you customize it a lot. Additionally, these layouts may not meet your requirements either. Building a custom layout is the best option in these cases.
If you choose to use Gutenberg (block editor), you won’t get the ease and freedom to design your site the way you want. You might need to add your own CSS to enhance your custom single post templates.
