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

    omg,,,,You're so right....how'd I forget that? I had Encarta 95 and didn't think about it until you mentioned it.

    The Internet: when it's not **** you off it's making you look like a moron. The moral: stick to Cracked.com and pr0n sites and you'll never prove to the entire planet that you're an idiot.

    concur with all comments.  2013 themes are awful.

    I'd like to add my own request for different Office 2013 themes. I've been a lifelong Office user, and I am really having a hard time seeing my workspace with the three built-in themes. If I can't find any 3rd party solutions to these themes, I'm going to ask Microsoft for a refund on Office 2013 and buy 2010 instead. Just being honest with you. The grayscale themes are really terrible. Yes, I can still use it, but it is NOT a pleasant viewing experience. I liked the themes in Office 2003 the best, and 2010 is still much better than 2013 in this regard.

    2 updates for Office in the last month. Neither had new themes. I don't get it. Is Microsoft not supplying these much needed color themes just to prove they "own" the software? Just an explanation would be helpful at this point. Its pretty bad when Office 2011 for Mac is easier to live with.... and believe me, its quirky! Come on Microsoft. I'm cheering for you. I bought a Surface Pro. I installed Windows on my MacBook Pro..... now its your turn....
