I hope beautifully designed refers to the function... As it stands, Ubuntu is a pretty desktop. Gnome software looks good and covers most of the basic things you need to do with an OS. I spend most of my time in Chrome, Atom and Steam, all work well. There's functional software for most tasks and it would be a fairly big undertaking to replace it, so I'm curious what you'd actually be building. If it's just MacOS skinned equivalents to the Gnome/KDE apps then I'd say no, I'm not paying for it. If you create something truly useful then yes, I would.
