A visual Obsidian theme built around elemental worlds — each with its own colour, atmosphere, visual language, and design system.

Elementra transforms your vault into an elemental environment where notes, links, properties, tables, code, and graphs become part of a living visual system.

Designed for students, researchers, developers, writers, designers, creators, knowledge workers, planners, and anyone who wants their Obsidian vault to feel more immersive and personal.

Preview

One vault. Six elements. A workspace shaped by the power of the elements.

The Six Elements

Elementra contains six distinct elemental worlds.

They are not simply colour presets. Each element has its own visual atmosphere and artwork designed around its elemental identity.

Each element shares the same Elementra foundation while creating a completely different visual environment.

Features

Elementra Is More Than a Colour Theme

The six elements are not six simple colour schemes.

Each element represents a different visual world.

Changing the element can affect:

• Interface colours
• Background and panel surfaces
• Typography
• Borders and separators
• Buttons and interactive elements
• Tables and data presentation
• Code surfaces
• Properties
• Navigation
• Graph View
• Elemental artwork
• Background atmosphere
• Visual hierarchy

Choose the element that matches your mood, workflow, or imagination.

The Six Elemental Worlds

Six elements. One Elementra system.

Changing the Element

Elementra uses the Style Settings community plugin to control its elemental system.

The Style Settings plugin is required to switch between the six Elementra elements or customize the theme.

Install Style Settings

1. Open Obsidian.
2. Open Settings.
3. Select Community plugins.
4. Click Browse.
5. Search for Style Settings.
6. Select Style Settings.
7. Click Install.
8. Click Enable.

Style Settings is a separate Obsidian community plugin. It is not included with the Elementra theme.

Select an Element

1. Open Settings.
2. Go to Style Settings.
3. Find the Elementra section.
4. Locate Elementra Element.
5. Select your preferred element.

Elementra will apply the selected elemental environment.

Changing the element changes the overall Elementra atmosphere, not just its colour.

Your notes, files, content, and vault structure remain unchanged.

Design Philosophy

Elementra is built around a simple idea:

Your workspace should feel like a world.

Different parts of the vault become part of an elemental environment.

• Notes become knowledge.
• Folders become territories.
• Links become connections.
• Tags become classifications.
• Properties become information.
• Tasks become actions.
• Tables become structured data.
• Canvas becomes a visual space.
• Code becomes the technical layer.
• Graph View becomes the elemental network.
• Elements become different worlds.

Structure meets atmosphere.
