Is KDE 4 still available? Or how to use the look of KDE 4 on Plasma 5?

I know the latest version is KDE Plasma 5, but I really dislike its look and I want to use KDE 4. I found that KDE 3 is available as Trinity DE, being a continuation of the old version.

Is there something similar for KDE 4? The problem is not the software, but especially the look.

I am unable to find how to install KDE 4 on new Ubuntu, or how to use the KDE 4 design on KDE 5.

Can you help me? Thank you!

Using latest version of Ubuntu.

Qt4 is EOL and was removed from Ubuntu in 2019 (2015 upstream was announced EOL though Debian & Ubuntu supported it until 15-Mar-2019)

For more details refer .

Qt5 (introduced 19-Dec-2012) replaced Qt4, and naturally KDE4 requires Qt4 so it's EOL/gone.
