It had been posted before, but I'll repeat:
(This is LO 5.3.0.3 on Mac)

Cell Styles (icon) > Default
Right Click Modify..

Enter a name (e.g. Default), select category "My Templates",
check "Set as default template" > Save
In other versions you might have to do
File > Templates < Manage Templates, Filter Spreadsheets, to set the template 
as default.
