Theme for Home Assistant
A Home Assistant theme in ink, paper and gold
Set in DM Sans, light or dark as your profile says. Device colours, sizes and icons stay as Home Assistant draws them.
- Stable
- Version 1.0.5
- Apache-2.0
- Home Assistant 2026.10+
- HACS
The problem
One look, checked, instead of dozens of variables.
Colours and type come from a tested design system instead of dozens of variables set by hand.
The contrast of every colour pair is checked in both modes.
The fonts come from your own Home Assistant, not from someone else's server.
Features
What it does
Action colour
Ink in light mode, gold in dark mode, for buttons, switches, sliders, tabs and the selected sidebar entry.
Surfaces
Header and sidebar sit on the page ground. Cards are flat with a thin border and a 16 px radius; dialogs have 24 px.
Text, lines and focus
Warm greys for secondary text and borders, a bronze or gold focus ring and links.
Status
Success, warning, error and information in the design system's colours. Gold is never a status.
Type
DM Sans for the interface, Red Hat Mono for code, once you add the fonts.
What stays Home Assistant's
The colours of device states (amber for a light that is on, orange for heating, blue for cooling and so on), sizes and spacing, icons and texts. The theme only sets values; it adds no content. In HACS and in your profile, it is called simply Azentrius.
Screenshots
Security
- Your own Home Assistant serves the fonts under /local/; nothing is loaded from anywhere else.
- Every release has SHA256SUMS and a signed build provenance from the repository's release workflow.

Questions
Does it change the colours of my devices?
No. Device states keep Home Assistant's colours.
Why is it called Azentrius in HACS?
That is the name you pick it by in your profile and with frontend.set_theme. Azentrius Theme is the product name.
Does it load fonts from the internet?
No. Your own Home Assistant serves them under /local/. Without them, your system's sans-serif is used.
Can I make it the default for everyone?
Yes, with the action frontend.set_theme and name: Azentrius. A choice in a profile wins over the default.
Does it work in light and dark mode?
Yes. Both follow the setting in your profile.
Will it break after an update?
It can: besides the official theme variables, it sets newer ones that may change with a frontend update. It is tested with 2026.10; please report problems as an issue.
