Intro

My theme is called after Frank Herbert's eponymous novel cycle. His novels were incredibly successful and influenced Science-fiction and everything related afterwards, so nobody dared to portray his universe on big screen until Dune from 1984, directed by David Lynch. I still enjoy to watch Dune from 1984, - both Frank and David created an epic, evergreen artwork.

Dune's color palette:

  • daylight palette with warm colors: wood - sand - rosé,
  • nighttime palette with fresh colors: dusk - midnight - blacky,
  • flat tones resembling Obsidian's default b/w theme. You can customize both "flat tones" with the colors you like!

[!tip]

If you read further, you'll discover this theme is not just a color play, Dune adds a ton of new features too! Check out its features
