Design For The Initial Screen
The project is mainly about new ways of interacting with something and thinking about it, my designs lack anything much in the way of new OS interactions.
So I came up with these designs for what I call the “Base Station”, as soon as the OS boots you would be presented with the Base Station a GUI sliced into three main parts.
1. Files (access to “My Computer”)
2. Internet (access to the web browser and eMail)
3. System/Options (access to system preferences)
+ A log-off/shut-down button in the bottom right hand corner
Below the sketches for the Base Station and Options panel is a possible web browser design,
a little to similar is Google Chrome?
My idea for the use of scroll-bars is similar is Mac OS X Lion, accept they are never ever seen.
So my only real concern is that the idea for the Base Station maybe too much like the Metro UI in Windows 8.
Please leave me a comment, letting me know if you think the design is too similar to Windows 8 Metro or if you think the web browser is too similar to Google Chrome.
Except Windows 8, Metro UI and Mac OS X Lion.
