the title says it all, can openoffice.org look more like kde applications ?

Try emerging gtk-engines-qt. It's supposed to make QT re-render GTK apps to look more like QT apps. I personally have never tried it because I dislike QT and don't use it, but it sounds promising for those who like it.

oo.o uses it's own widget (and not GTK) if I'm not mistaken.

Though, I've heard rumors that oo.o 2 will be using GTK2, that means GTK-QT-engine will work with that.

you can get crystal icons and a few other kde-isms with

USE="ooo-kde" emerge openoffice-ximian

it's not perfect (or using qt), but it is a lot better!

all the best,
