Yea, I kept digging into the config yesterday and I think it is
dark-primary-color:
as you said @PhysicalMagic. Would be great to have it split to something different in the next release though, as on dark colour themes, the links start to blend with the background.

What about the second black?
The second one, is the one I used in the example code so that should be:
base-hue: '220'
base-sat: '16%'
(for anyone wondering)
The first one is:
base-hue: '160'
base-sat: '0%'
and the third one is:
base-hue: '30'
base-sat: '12%'Physical Magic - awesome work 
There are definitely some nice themes in this thread, so thank you for sharing. I’m totally new to home automation, just bought a new house and I’m looking into all possibilities. For now I’m a bit stuck between OpenHAB2 and HA. What I am really wondering about is if it’s possible to have a GUI on the phone and/or via the browser that has custom icons and/or text beneath or above icons? Maybe also some custom grouping.
An example of what I mean can be seen here:

I find the end GUI to be very important as this is where we’ll spend most of our time when it’s completely setup. So if I have to invest time in development for adding and controlling items or Things, that would be fine. As long as the GUI can be made really cool.
Thank you for you help and sorry if this is the wrong place for asking. But I couldn’t really find a more custom look on the website.
Thanks for the feedback jamrt518, appreciate it. Maybe I’m missing something but it looks totally different then the image I posted in my question. I assume it’s possible to make it look like that using Floorplan and have functionality on the buttons?
Yes VDRainer, this looks more like what I’m looking for. However, is it possible to group tiles together in say Living room, First floor and Second floor? Or is that layout fixed? See the original image I posted.
Definitely check appDaemon and more especially HADashboard. This is an example of what I did (after only a couple hours or so).
Look into the forums, there are plenty of examples of very good designs. As all is in CSS, you can basically do whatever you want. And if you are not familiar with it, you can simply copy an existing design and adapt it.
Thx lambtho, but all I see is the same design just with different buttons and colors. In your example I would like to have one big tile called Living room that groups Living Light and Living Humidity together. Same for the Bedroom section. Could you post a link to a very different design then all the tiles sticking together? So I have a better understanding of what you mean.
Hi Thomas can I ask you what appdaemon? I was hoping to do something similar to what you have got there.
A guide to set this up would be great.
Thanks.
I think what you are looking for is Floorplan as linked by jmart518 above. You create your own dashboard using an SVG file, so you can make it look however you want. Here’s the one I am currently working on… (still VERY MUCH a work in progress)
or a very early example of the first one I created
I don’t have an exact example of what you want to do, but that would be very easy to accomplish.
Great community here and very helpful people. Thank you atomicpapa, it’s a bit more clear now thanks to your example. Looks really wicked I must say!
Some questions I still have:
In your case, floorplan might be the way to go to offer a complete modularity.
I am almost certain it could be done too with HADashboard, but that may require very advanced skills. I think I read somewhere that some people (@ReneTode @aimc maybe do you have an example or something ?) use 1px tile size and by finetuning the dimensions of everything you can have a bit more complex result.
This is might be a bit technical to set up if you only have a very basic knowledge. I would recommend being very comfortable with HA before diving into it. See the full documentation on the links below. I think the dev of appdeamon and bruh’s automation are looking into possibly doing some setup video in the future…

Yes, the buttons are clickable. You can have a button either perform an action, like toggling a light, or have it pop up another menu with additional clickable items or display items (which is what I am working on in my first example). Everything is done with basically 3 files. A YAML config file, where you declare the names of the enitities you want to interact with and what they do; a CSS file that controls how they appear when you do something to them; and the SVG file, with objects with names matching the enities you are interacting with. ie clicking on a button wiht the object name light.bedroom will toggle an entity in HA named light.bedroom. And with all that said, this is very much off topic for this thread, so maybe it should be moved to the appropriate place.
these themes are awesome! Thanks for all the hard work guys!!
@atomicpapa Soo… the LCARS interface… I’ve been looking for something like this. I’ve found a few different options, but never thought of using the Floorplan SVG to do it… When you get it to a working state do you plan on sharing it?
