  Hi there,

  Are you talking about the white background here?

  

  In order to change that, you can edit CSS. Please go to Appearance → Customize → CSS and add the following:

  .site-header, .site-content, .content-wrapper+.grid-area, footer#colophon {
  	background: CSS_COLOR_VALUE;
  }
  
  footer#colophon {
  	border: 0;
  }

  Where it states, CSS_COLOR_VALUE, choose a color from here:

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

  Ah, so change your CSS to this:

  .site-header, .site-content, .content-wrapper+.grid-area, footer#colophon, .grid-area {
  	background: #000;
  }
  
  footer#colophon {
  	border: 0;
  }
