And the brand new design is perfect for that
It is the latest edition of Windows OS with a new interface and other new features such as the new Microsoft Store, a new personal feed that is powered by artificial intelligence and the best-in-class performance of the Microsoft Edge browser, the taskbar integrated Microsoft Teams chat and much more! What’s new in Windows 11:- Windows 11 will have a completely new design. It’s clear that Microsoft needs a good reason to retract its previous claims and still abandon Windows 10 by introducing a new operating system number. The Redmond giant has long been preparing the design of the update with the code name Sun Valley (“Sun Valley”) – apparently, this was the name of Windows 11. The Sun Valley project has flickered on the network for a long time – Microsoft regularly revealed details of the new interface style, insiders shared previously unknown information , and popular designers in their circle drew realistic concepts based on all these data.
– Launched and system items will float above the bottom bar
Start is the calling card and face of every latest version of Windows. It is not surprising that in the Windows 11 operating system, developers will transform it again, but not so much functionally as visually – the Start window will hang above the bottom bar. We have to admit that this small change makes the system look much fresher. Judging by information from the network, Microsoft will not radically change the “inside” of this menu – the innovations will affect only the design of the window itself. The control panel will also float and will have exactly the same design as Start.
– Rectangles will disappear, replaced by fillets
The Action Center will be combined with control buttons, similar to what some other operating systems have been using for a long time. Almost all mentions of this new menu indicate that it will be an island, with controls in one separate panel, notifications in another, and specific items (like the player) in another separate panel. In fact, insiders and concept creators are divided on this matter, with some convinced that Microsoft will not change its tradition and stick to right angles, while others believe that in 2021 Microsoft will follow the fillet fashion. The latter is more in line with the definition of “all-new Windows” – floating menus alone aren’t enough to qualify a new design as truly new. The fillet is expected to affect practically everything in the system, from context menus and system panels to all application windows.
– There will be a transparent background with a blur everywhere
True, even in this matter, the opinions of concept developers differ – some draw fillets in all possible interface elements, others combine them at right angles. There is disagreement on the internet about the island style of windowing, the design of the corners and the levitation effect of the menus, but almost everyone agrees on the transparency of the windows. The vast majority of leaks and design renderings show transparency and blur in all windows, whether it’s at least the Start menu or the browser. Moreover, these effects are present even when installing the canceled Windows 10X operating system, which Microsoft developed for devices with two screens and weak apps in parallel with the Sun Valley project. The so-called acrylic transparency means the use of new effects when hovering over elements, as well as increased spaces between elements – those areas of the interface with which the user interacts will certainly increase, and page titles will be thickened.
– New font that was already shown
Windows 11 will likely use the default responsive Segoe UI Variable font, which already appeared in Windows 10 Build 21376 for Insiders. Its advantage is that it is equally suitable for small texts and large notes.
