Looks awesome, what is the base-hue and base-sat for the first/black screenshot?
The base-hue and base-sat for that one are:
base-hue: '160'
base-sat: '0%'
Since the base-sat on that one is set to 0, the background elements are full grey-tones and not effected by the base-hue, only the buttons and sliders (and other accents) are, so you might as well change the base-hue on that one to any color you like without it changing the background. Here is a gradient with the corresponding base-hue values (or any number in between) you could use.

I was wondering if anyone knows which class controls link colouring?
Example (dark green text): https://i.imgur.com/UPt6qF4.png
That should be this one:
dark-primary-color:
Although dark-primary-color may also change other elements, but I’m not sure which.
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.
Posted a feature request: Thread 26782
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:
https://goo.gl/images/xSyELW
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.
