From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The truth is that none will allow you what you have in your mind exactly, unless you get down dirty and start programming it. However, some DEs are more customizable than others, e.g. KDE is more customizable than Gnome, for example.
That seem to be the case as I can't find anything that allows me to change the window border shapes. I'll have to look even deeper.
I think XFce supports quite a few themes for the window manager that completely changes how the window borders look like.
