In order to style this application properly you'll need to create login.css file in /src folder of your project. If you dont know how to do that, please check out JavaFX 2: Styling Buttons tutorial.
 
Here is CSS code of our example:
#root {
 -fx-background-color:  linear-gradient(lightgray, gray);
 -fx-border-color: white;
 -fx-border-radius: 20;
 -fx-padding: 10 10 10 10;
 -fx-background-radius: 20;
 
}
 
#bp {
 -fx-background-color:  linear-gradient(gray,DimGrey );
 
}
 
#btnLogin {
    -fx-background-radius: 30, 30, 29, 28;
    -fx-padding: 3px 10px 3px 10px;
    -fx-background-color: linear-gradient(orange, orangered );
}
 
#text {
 -fx-fill:  linear-gradient(orange , orangered);
}
