If you used this method of installing Gnome 3.14 (basically using the ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
and/or ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
PPAs - the article also details some problems that occur in Unity caused by installing 3.14), you should be able to use the following:
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging
This disables the PPAs and any reverts to the official repositories' packages, downgrading Gnome 3.14 back to the default installed version. This should restore the bugs of large icons, Ambiance theme problems, client-side decorations etc if you want to use Unity not Gnome 3.14.

Is it possible to downgrade OS version also? from Ubuntu 14.10 to 14.04 LTS as 14.10 is unstable and many issues with graphics and all. – snoop Dec 26 '14 at 16:31
