Rho Zero

A dark theme for Obsidian: near-black, warm off-white, hairline panels and small spaced-out mono labels. Quiet, flat, no gradients.

Rho Zero

What it does

  • Colours: near-black #050607 background, warm off-white text, soft greys for everything in between.
  • Sections as labels: h2 and h3 headings become small spaced-out mono capitals, the note title stays plain.
  • Hairlines: tables, callouts and code sit in thin-bordered boxes with tight corners.
  • A menu-like sidebar: top folders are numbered (1 PROJECTS, 2 JOURNAL) in small mono capitals.
  • Soft status colours for callouts, tags and highlights: mint, salmon, sand, lilac and sky.
  • Graph: a dark field, warm white nodes, faint lines, mint tags.

Dark mode only. In Settings > Appearance, set the base colour scheme to Dark.

Install

In Obsidian: Settings > Appearance > Themes > Manage, search for Rho Zero, Install and use.

Or by hand: from the latest release, download manifest.json and theme.css into <your vault>/.obsidian/themes/Rho Zero/, then pick Rho Zero under Settings > Appearance > Themes.

Fonts

It asks for Geist and Geist Mono (free, by Vercel). If they aren't installed it falls back to your system's own sans and mono fonts and still looks fine; the screenshot above is the fallback.

Goes well with

Rho Network, a plugin that turns your vault into a living 3D star system. The two share a look, but neither needs the other.
