How to Change the Color Scheme in Shopify Symmetry Theme

Symmetry's colors are controlled by reusable color schemes, not one-off settings per section — change a scheme once and every section using it updates together.

Steps

  1. In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes and click Customize on Symmetry.
  2. Click Theme settings (the paintbrush icon) at the bottom of the left panel.
  3. Select Colors.
  4. Click into any scheme (Scheme 1, 2, 3...) to edit its background, text, button, and border colors.
  5. Add a new scheme with Add scheme if you need an extra combination for a specific section.
  6. Click Save.

Per-section overrides

Assign schemes to individual sections from that section's own settings (look for a Color scheme dropdown). Symmetry's own documentation also covers color blending between adjacent sections — worth checking if you want transitions between schemes to look intentional rather than abrupt.
