one of the guiding principles in plasma has been to try and make UIs embody more organic principles in terms of motion and presentation. obviously it's still a computer interface, and there's still much work to be done. but this is one of the ideas that persists with those of us working on it every day.
the wallpapers we have used for defaults have been beautiful, at least in my opinion, but they've also had a tinge of .. well .. constructedness. they aren't something i'd expect to see in my garden or in the forests i walk through or the ocean i am peering out into as i write this. they don't look like something a human animal would have made with their hands, moving about as hands do with sticks and brushes in them. they aren't, in a word, very organic. beautiful, yes. organic .. not so much.
so there is a(n admittedly subtle) disparity between an aspect of the philosophy that guides technical design in plasma and our default visual presentation.
