Blau theme
Blau is a medium contrast theme inspired by the colours of FC Barcelona. It comes in light and dark variants, while using a single 16-colour palette.
Packages or ports of it are available for Vim and Atom (deprecated as of 2019-05-04), as well as the Xfce4, RXVT-Unicode (urxvt), and XTERM terminal emulators.
UPDATE 2019-05-04: Prot16 is not actively maintained. The themes for Vim and terminal emulators should still work though. Users are encouraged to use my Tempus themes instead.
