What makes my desktop go like this?

The icons seem to be part of the HighContrast icon set.
There's a few tools you can use to change your active Icon Set, i recommend you to install Ubuntu Tweak.

There's 2 ways to install it:

1) You can download the latest .deb file from the official website, open it up with the Software Center and hit Install.

2) Or add the PPA and install the package (It doesn't seem to have builds for any recent versions other than 14.04. So if you're not running Trusty then use the .deb file):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

To change your icon theme just open Ubuntu Tweak up, click the Tweaks tab, click Theme, and finally choose your Icon Theme on the drop-down menu.
