Here's my pretty Sublime Text 3:
It looks clean. No status bars, no line numbers, big, readable codes and iconography, and, still has the Sidebar and Minimap which is what made Sublime Text awesome.
My take here is, your editor is your canvas, not a pilot's cockpit. You are creating something. You're not driving a plane. Remove distractions, take your Zen a step deeper!

Setup
Make yours pretty too:
1. Install Package Control
Go to Preferences -> Install Package Control.
2. Install Material Theme
Install Material Theme via Package Control, activate then pick your favorite color. I like Palenight, it's light on my eyes.
3. Install Fira Code
Fira Code is my favorite code font, download and install it on your system.
4. Update Settings
Hide Status Bar: View -> Hide Status Bar.
Add settings (Cmd + , in Mac or Ctrl + , in Windows):
"color_scheme": "Packages/Material Theme/schemes/Material-Theme-Palenight.tmTheme",
"theme": "Material-Theme-Palenight.sublime-theme",
"font_face": "Fira Code",
"font_size": 14,
"line_numbers": false
Done
Pretty, simple!
