Do you mean icon and desktop theme for Gnome 3, or a version of Gnome 2, or
something else? The answer is complicated.
Gnome 3 has a "classic mode" in 3.0 - 3.4. Also called in some dists,
"fallback mode". After Gnome 3.6, fallback mode will go away. There is a
Debian-based distro called SolusOS (I think) that has a gnome 2-style
desktop that is like Gnome 2 but uses gtk 3. MATE desktop, with is
available for Mint, Ubuntu, and Debian, and a few RPM-based dists, is a fork
of Gnome 2. It is rough in spots, but works fairly well for me. There is
Cinnamon, and you might consider an alternative like it.
Is any of this a place for you to start, or have I misunderstood?
