Batroun

The coast. The Phoenician sea wall at Ras el-Shaq’a, sun going down over the water.

One of four themes in Levantine Sunset — two places, each at two depths. Ember and gold on a blue-leaning indigo base.

Install

omarchy theme install https://github.com/gaius-codius/omarchy-batroun-theme

Then pick it from the theme menu, or omarchy theme set "Batroun".

Palette

key
accent	#E4744A
background	#11131B
foreground	#EDE3D6
red	#E4744A
yellow	#E8B25C
green	#A8B36A
cyan	#5CB6A8
blue	#6F93E0
magenta	#D98BA6

The full set is in colors.toml. Depth moves luminance only and place moves hue only, so the two axes stay independent: both depths of a place share every accent, and both places at a depth share the same luminance on every key.

Wallpapers

Left to right, top to bottom, in the order listed below.

file
1-colonnade	pointed arches cut from a dark wall, evening beyond
2-ridge	two rolling silhouettes against a horizon
3-shaft	one warm beam falling through the dark
4-scanline	a horizon on a CRT, every third row dimmed

All four are generated procedurally from this theme's own hex values — there are no source photographs. Cycle them with omarchy theme bg next, or drop your own into ~/.config/omarchy/backgrounds/batroun/.

Boot and login screen

Omarchy styles the Plymouth boot splash and the SDDM login screen together, from this theme's background, foreground and unlock.png. Applying it is a separate, one-time, root operation — omarchy theme set does not touch either screen, so installing this theme leaves whatever greeter you already had:

omarchy plymouth set by theme batroun

The argument is the directory slug — the name omarchy plymouth list prints — not the display name. It needs root and rebuilds the initramfs, so give it a minute. To see what is currently applied (it prints the same slug), or to go back to the stock Omarchy screen:

omarchy plymouth current
omarchy plymouth reset

unlock.png is the boot logo mark — a pointed arcade with a quiet lowercase omarchy beneath it, the same arcade that is the subject of 1-colonnade. It is not a wallpaper and not the Hyprland lock screen, which uses your current background instead. preview-unlock.png is the composed 1920x1080 render above, and is what omarchy plymouth switcher shows in its picker.

To render that preview yourself without applying anything:

omarchy plymouth preview '#11131B' '#EDE3D6' unlock.png /tmp/preview.png

Note it opens the result fullscreen in imv when it finishes; close it to get your prompt back.

The rest of the collection

Batroun Noir · Beirut · Beirut Noir

All four, plus the generator that builds them: levantine-sunset

Optional: matching file-manager colours

omarchy theme set does touch GTK — omarchy-theme-set-gnome sets color-scheme, gtk-theme and icon-theme on every switch — but gtk-theme is only ever Adwaita or Adwaita-dark, so a theme's colours never reach GTK and every dark theme yields an identical Nautilus. This theme ships an icons.theme so at least the folder icons match its accent, which is the documented mechanism and travels with the theme.

Carrying the actual colours needs a machine-level template, because there is no sanctioned way to ship one inside a theme. It applies to every installed theme, stock ones included — which is why it isn't in this repo:

~/.config/omarchy/themed/gtk.css.tpl        # the template
~/.config/gtk-4.0/gtk.css -> ~/.local/state/omarchy/current/theme/gtk.css

omarchy-theme-set-templates globs ~/.config/omarchy/themed/*.tpl, so adding a template makes every theme generate a gtk.css alongside its ghostty.conf; the symlink points GTK at whichever theme is active. GTK reads its CSS at startup, so restart an app to see a change (nautilus -q, then reopen). The template is in the collection repo.

What's in here

Colour and images only — nothing that runs code, so nothing is stripped on install. Omarchy regenerates the twenty app configs from colors.toml on your machine.
