This is the Peace GTK theme.

Goal

Simple, fast, elegant design, and above all easy on the eyes for users that sit at computers for hours at a time. The theme should be able to serve as a default for months or years by discerning users.

Engine

Currently I'm using the non-cairo Clearlooks engine for gtk+ as I've found it offers acceptable performance with a clean modern design. Peek at the attachment below to see some gtkperf tests I ran on an Nvidia Quatro P4 2.8 ghz system. Peace runs about 8% slower than the fastest theme I tested in comparrison to Human which was twice as slow as the fastest theme (Mist). The test results have been revised with results for the Murine engine which faired slightly better than Ubuntulooks.
