Verge Forums called Sputnik 8 put together a really great series of Windows Desktop concepts that are VERY impressive. His words..

This is a desktop concept that I’ve recently put together for fun. I thought I’d post a few screens to see what people here think. The screens include variations of explorer, ie (with a quick redesign of windows.com and bing), media center/player, and skype. Note that I didn’t aim for the design to be completely consistent with what MS calls ‘metro’ (for instance, I specifically didn’t want loops around icons, among other things). Anyway, click on the images to see the full versions.
The images are gorgeous and clean and show a possible direction that the Windows 8 Desktop could have gone in. He mixes Metro concepts with very clean design to make a sexy hybrid desktop. Kind of makes you wonder if the upcoming Windows 8 release will be as clean and inspiring? Check out the images below.. [gallery link="file" columns="4"] What do you think?]]>
