🖌️ A clean and elegant GTK3+ theme that uses Arc styling and the Adwaita colour palette.
akwa
Akwa is a theme that uses the Arc styles paired together with the Adwaita colour scheme. This theme was created with the idea of using Arc's slim titlebars and clean lines but also theme it so the colours match the default Adwaita theme, specifically the shell theme. Only the selection colour is different because it just looks better.
It comes in two variants for now, dark and normal.

Installation
Source
You can clone the repository and move or copy the Akwa
and Akwa-dark
themes into ~/.themes/
or /usr/share/themes/
.
Alternative, open a terminal and run the one-liner below. This will clone the repository to your /tmp
folder, create a .themes
folder if it already doesn't exist, then copy the theme to that directory.
cd /tmp/ && git clone https://github.com/berkiyo/akwa.git && cd akwa && mkdir -p ~/.themes && cp -r Akwa* ~/.themes
Alternatively, you can replace ~/.themes
with ~/.local/share/themes
but you won't get GTK2 support.
Once installed, simply activate the theme in GNOME Tweak Tool.
Flatpak
If you want to theme Flatpak applications, you can install the Flatpak themes with the following command (make sure you have Flathub installed)
flatpak install org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Akwa org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Akwa-light org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Akwa-dark
