+# CSS Variables
+
+All colors used by sphinx-design are defined as [CSS variables](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Using_CSS_custom_properties).
+Therefore they can be overriden by adding a `.css` file in a `_static` folder in your projects source folder (see [the sphinx documentation](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/configuration.html#confval-html_css_files)):
+
+```python
+html_static_path = ['_static']
+html_css_files = ['custom.css']
+```
+
+The defaults are:
+
+```css
+:root {
