| Thanks to this project you can play around with all the different GUI styles of AmigaOs, even Amibench is on there now with the latest update
https://www.taws.ch/WB.html
I always liked how you could customise the OS to be your own, but out of the main default theme on TAWS, which is your fav.
I have to say, there is something about AmigaOS4.1 style that I like the most, the icons, the colours make feel connected to retro AmigaOS3 look, but also make it look much more modern and always felt Amiga desktop should have blue Windows by default.
Amikit XE comes close, I always do a bit of customisation to it, to make it feel a bit more closer to AmigaOS4.1 look.
Is there one GUI look of Amiga you like the most?

Years ago, my Amiga A2000HD had OS 1.3 and I upgraded to OS 3.1.
Never had OS 3.5 or OS 3.9.
My MicroA1 started with OS 4.0 and I upgraded to OS 4.1 and OS 4.1 FE.
These are my favourites from TAWS (in order of my preferences) ...
OS 3.5 XEN
OS 3.1 plain
OS 4.0
OS 4.1 FE
The second and third ones are purely nostalgia. 
Currently running Amiga OS 4.1 FE Update 3 on my MicroA1, but including some of the icons from earlier distributions.

| We are pleased that TAWs now has AmiBench added.
It is a good implementation but currently misses some of the elements such as the Dock, Clock and Calendar.
