Partly agree, even though I have to say material design so far is
closest to that idea to date, looking at all other user interfaces I've
so far seen.

Talking about (Ubuntu) GNOME, however: I use that on my day-to-day work
laptop so I spend loads of time also during office hours in front of it
while at the same time I then and now have to do presentations or have
people sitting in front of my screen. 

For those scenarios I am looking for a simple, straight, "elegant"
theme, flat controls, decent color scheme, not too many bright
elements. So far I use either Numix Frost or Arc-Dark which seem
closest to that. Default GNOME theme unfortunately is not a fun to use
because of the window title bar and the top level bar which both are
way too large for a small screen and, talking about the window title
bar, pretty ugly at least by my tastes which doesn't count much. 

Would be nice, for these purposes, to have a theme such as Numix, Arc
or the Elementary-OS theme bundled with Ubuntu GNOME out of the box...

Cheers,
Kristian
