Is this design possible with ExtJS?

I've been asked to do the front end for a web app, and to use ExtJS specifically.

I've been working through a couple of tutorials, but I've not seen much variation on the default ExtJS look and feel except for some subtle changes to the colors and what not.

The design I've been handed seems to be a radical departure from the standard ExtJs look and feel. So before I head down a dead end or start chasing wild geese, I wondered wether any ExtJS experts out there could point out any potential pit falls in the design, or is everything do-able?

The design is here...

Definitely possible, IF you have pretty strong CSS skills and not afraid to customize the JS components to some extent. You're going to be overriding a lot of the default stylesheet content to get this look-and-feel, and for certain aspects it may require tweaking the markup generated by a component by default. If you are new to Ext JS this may be a bit daunting, but once you wrap your head around it you can do about anything you want.

Yes, it is definitely possible.

ExtJS is designed to be easily customised. With some CSS knowledge, you should not have problems getting that look and feel.

Just as an example, you may want to check out this service, which uses a very customized ExtJS skin:
