Scriptorium

A warm, minimal Obsidian theme for long-form reading and writing.

Chinese | Japanese

Scriptorium keeps the writing surface primary: soft paper tones, restrained contrast, quiet workspace chrome, flatter tags and callouts, and typography tuned for mixed CJK and Latin notes.

[!NOTE] Scriptorium is a personal aesthetic. It does not aim to support the Style Settings plugin.

Install

1. Search for Scriptorium in Obsidian Community Themes.
2. Click Install and use.

Manual install: copy theme.css and manifest.json into .obsidian/themes/Scriptorium/, then select Scriptorium in Appearance -> Themes.

Design

• Recommended fonts: IBM Plex Sans, IBM Plex Serif, IBM Plex Mono.
• Document surfaces stay light: texture, shadow, and accent color are deliberately restrained.
• Navigation, search, menus, tags, callouts, and embeds stay quiet so prose remains central.
• Version 0.10.0 is the GPT-5.6 Sol "极高" update: stronger dark-mode contrast, pane-aware typography, consistent auto-hide behavior, quieter heading rules, flatter tags, and a lighter mobile reading surface.
• The theme ships as a single theme.css with no external dependencies.
