Why is Gimp layout in gray colors and can I change it?

That looks like you might have a new computer maybe with a 4k monitor and a very customised layout

You might / might-not want to start from scratch: All of these in Edit -> Preferences

Reset all the windows to default: https://i.imgur.com/aGM8ooc.jpg

Reset the tool options: https://i.imgur.com/V9xr5NQ.jpg

Then to change the dark to a lighter model https://i.imgur.com/IGpgmST.jpg

Coloured icons are still there: https://i.imgur.com/PN7yFgF.jpg
