If you’re looking for a Mac theme for Linux, look no further.

Windows 95 theme for Win 10 is most popular. And, hundreds of searches trend in. This is a specially designed Cinnamon theme looking like Apple’s macOS for Linux users.

GNOME-OSX II is (as you might have already guessed) a Mac GTK theme for Linux desktops — and it’s a pretty pretty adaptation.

Mono Dark Flattr. The beautiful Mono Dark Flattr is a fork of Flatter and Ultra-Flat-Icons with the aim. The goal of this project is to bring the look and feel of Mac OS X (latest being 10.5, Leopard) on.nix GTK based systems.

‘This theme is a ‘gnome-desktop-interpretation of Mac OS X”

Yup, this is not an out-and-out copy of the standard UI in macOS. The theme describes itself as “a gnome-desktop-interpretation of Mac OS X”, with the theme designer saying they’ve “tried to implement the feel of OS X on the gnome-applications.”

This means the theme it’s not trying to be a pixel-perfect clone of the macOS theme — and there are plenty of GTK themes that try to do that out there — but instead adapts the core design of Cupertino’s desktop OS in a way that makes sense (and looks best) on the GNOME desktop.

The GNOME-OSX II theme works with most modern GNOME-based desktops, including GNOME Shell, GNOME Flashback, and Budgie. But the theme does not work with the Unity desktop.

Aside from evoking the form and function of macOS there are some novel touches too, such as the use of a blurred sidebar in the Nautilus file manager, and consistent theming across GTK2 and GTK3 apps.

A compataible GNOME Shell theme is also available to download for those wanting even more mac-inspired bling for their desktops.

Compare Os X To Linux

Whether you have Apple envy or simply admire and appreciate the design aesthetic of a macOS, there’s no shame if you decide to make Ubuntu look like Mac. The whole point of using Linux is (after all) that you can do things like this — you certainly can’t make Mac OS X look like Ubuntu!
