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

    I agree the new theme is not pretty.  I do not like the "Wordy" approach instead of more compact Icons representing those features - as a qualified Ergonomist, positional, icon and colour queues appear to have been abandoned in favour of a so-called "clean" theme which does not help users.  It also looks very stark and not polished.

    Sorry Microsoft - thumbs down to the designers.

    On behalf of all the smaller groups and 1000's of others that have complained (or attempted to) about the color options, PLEASE USE YOUR BUYING POWER TO AFFECT CHANGE!!  

    Good Luck!!!   I just previewed the new Office 2016 and they haven't changed anything in terms of the Themes!!

    Same 3 Options.....NO COLORS!!

    Really hard to imagine a company so blatantly disregarding repeated and repeated and repeated customer feedback.  Again, Good luck!  You will need it.

    don't buy office 2016.

    there is no significant change as to color schemes. it still hurts your eyes after a while.

    Evidently MS wants to impose this hurtful color schemes for reasons only they know. i'm still using office 2007 just because the pale blue is easier to work with for hours and my custom written programs i use for work have the same pale blue, but with that program i can use any combination i want to, i can't understand MS's obstination on this issue, but again they have the monopoly on office and impose what they like.

    Any other color options beside the 3 ugly options?

    I'm taking part in testing Office 365 for a major corporation with 10's of thousands of users.

    There has to be more available color options for users. No exceptions.
