The Home screen is not the same as the Startup screen (unless you make them the same in the settings). The Startup screen is the one you see when you first launch Chrome. You can personalize it with Themes downloaded from the Chrome Web Store by clicking Themes in the same Appearance section where you opt to show the Home button.
