Copy and paste the following commands.

sudo apt-get install -y autoconf
sudo apt-get install -y automake

# 2. Build and install the theme
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr

gnome-tweaks

Start settings with gnome-tweaks, and you can select the Arc theme in appearance > themes.

In ubuntu16.04, this was gnome-tweak-tool. The only difference is around here.
