Solution 1

Derive your control from the respective base class, e.g.
public class MyButton : System.Windows.Forms.Button
and override the OnPaint method:
protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
See e.g. AquaButton: A sample custom button control with a Mac OS X look[^]
If you use WPF, you can use styles for existing controls.
