DEsk

DEsk is a Wayland desktop environment for Linux built around a realistic skeuomorphic design (like iOS 6) where the whole desktop is drawn as an actual desk: windows are sheets of paper, the dock is a drawer, apps sit in binders on a bookshelf, notifications arrive in a post box, and settings live in a control panel built into the desk.
