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

    This is a feedback for the designers of Office 2013:

    There are NO availalble ways to load other themes to Office 2013 than the preloaded ones. Unfortunately Office 2010 has better design and it does not hurt in any ways the customer experience.

    Please review every feedback and you will find very useful tips that can help turn around the revolution of Office.

    Wow, @W.C.007. I really can't believe anyone with UI experience, no, make that ANYONE, would approve of NOT having any additional Themes at this time. What in the world are you waiting for? 100% negative comments should clue you in, Microsoft! This is my first time leaving a comment on a MS forum; sorry it had to be so negative, but c'mon. Common sense.....

    Is there a way to set the default theme through the OCT?  I want my users to see the light grey theme by default in all Office 2013 applications, as I am suppressing the "First Run" dialog via the OCT.  I looked through the user settings listing and did not see a setting to do this.

    We, too, would like to configure the default Office 2013 theme for our users upon installation. 

    Is there a way to set this through the Office Customization Tool (OCT)?

    Any insight is appreciated!
