This color theme uses the colors suggested in Colors.pptx.
I do not give any guarantees that all colors defined by all themes are covered
in this themes or that they work together harmoniously. I defined the major
colors (structure, palette {primary,secondary,tertiary,quaternary},
sidebar, palette sidebar {primary,secondary,tertiary,quaternary}, alerted text) but there are many more specific ones and I only did some cursory checks
against the default theme, one theme with a footer (Boadilla), one theme with a
sidebar (Bergen), and one theme with a sidebar talk outline (Berkeley).
Add the file beamercolorthemestork.sty to the directory of your beamer
presentation or to the directory where your other beamer themes live.
Add \usecolortheme{stork} to your preamble to activate it.
In beamer, changes to themes are cumulative. This means that themes that are
loaded later in the preamble add to or override themes loaded earlier. If you
would like to change a specific element of your presentation to a specific
color, you can load another color theme in which that that color is defined
first and load the stork color theme afterwards. Or you can define the color
and the element in the sty file. Look through some of the color themes that
come with beamer to get an idea of which elements can be changed.
Till Landau named his color themes after flying animals. I wanted to follow his
example. The symbol of the Max Planck Society is the owl, but I was trying to
find something more specific to our institute. My first idea was "seagull" but
sadly that was already taken. Then I thought about demography's themes
mortality, fertility, and migration. Mortality seemed a bit morbid as an
inspiration and everyone knows that babies are delivered by storks, so stork.
Also, there is the Rostocker Pfeilstorch
which adds another link to Rostock and to migration too.

See section 8.2.5 of the beamer user guide (p. 72).
The outer theme defines where the logo goes. If the logo does not show up, use a different (outer) theme.
