Dot Matrix Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 It might sound audacious to think that Microsoft, the arbiter of uncool, was at the forefront of design a few years ago. But it was. It turns out the company?s decision to focus on ?flat design,? a type of visual scheme where everything has a smooth and even look, was a few years ahead of the rest of the technology and user interface industry.

Phouchg Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Yes and no. Design must be functional, but also is a matter of taste. Indeed, Metro is functionally acceptable as far as graphical design goes except that certain colors aren't exactly easy on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
