You can change the theme in Office by clicking File > Account page in any Office product with the exception of Outlook. In Outlook, Click File > Office Account to change the theme.

There are three themes available in Office 2013:

White - Default

Light Gray

Dark Gray

    Only just bought 2013 so certainly not going to now buy 2016 because of this stupid issue.

    Office 2016 'Colorful' scheme replaces the gray header with a dark blue one, that appears to be unchangeable. Fonts and icons show up very poorly.

    It's a touch better than the old one, but looks very poorly done.

    Still produces eyestrain.

    I found that the Win7 era color schemes were easily adjustable to something that worked for me, and they looked great, at least to me.

    Not read anything on this for a while, but as MS have now addressed this issue in Office 2016 I think we may as well give up on this thread.

    I installed Office 2016 this morning, and the difference/improvement is remarkable... SO much better than it was on 2013.
