Basically, your options are:
1) Install XFCE desktop
apt-cache show xfce4
http://www.xfce.org/

2) Install Cinnamon desktop
apt-cache show cinnamon # sid only/ incomplete?

3) Install Mate desktop
apt-cache show mate-desktop # sid only?
http://mate-desktop.org/

4) Gnome plugins to make it look more like gnome classic
