The theme “Homeworld” by Juliette Taka has been selected
as default theme for Debian 11 ‘bullseye’. Juliette says that this theme
has been inspired by the Bauhaus movement, an art style born in Germany in
the 20th century.
After the Debian Desktop Team made the
call for proposing themes,
a total of eighteen choices
have been submitted. The desktop artwork poll was open to the public,
and we received 5,613 responses ranking the different choices, of which
Homeworld has been ranked as the winner among them.
This is the third time that a submission by Juliette has won. Juliette is
also the author of the lines theme
that was used in Debian 8 and the
softWaves theme
that was used in Debian 9.
We’d like to thank all the designers that have participated and have submitted
their excellent work in the form of wallpapers and artwork for Debian 11.
Congratulations, Juliette, and thank you very much for your contribution to Debian!
