 * Hello. Is it possible to have a second theme on a site? My friend wants one page
   to look differently than the rest of his site.
 * Any direction would be greatly appreciated!
 * Thanks,
    JD

 * Could be as easy as a different coded [Page Template](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages),
   or more complicated such as [http://op111.net/53](http://op111.net/53)

 * You can try the Swiss Army knife of WordPress plugins for that:
 * [http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/headspace/](http://urbangiraffe.com/plugins/headspace/)
 * It has two modules that can do what your friend wants.
 * The one lets you load stylesheets per post/page.
 * The other lets you load themes per post/page.

 * Are child themes complicated? Or is it just my howto? Either way I’m hurt! :-

 * [@demetris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/demetris/) – sorry, meant to 
   say using child themes would be more complicated than managing one template. 
   Thanks for the info on headspace.
