What do you think of these Windows Phone theme and accent colors?

Joe Fedewa is 23 years old and lives near Lansing, Michigan. He's been interested in technology ever since he got his first flip phone. Since then he's evolved from flip phones to smartphones, and become even more interested in everything from cord cutting to web browsers. Joe is also an avid sports fan and sci-fi movie geek. He's a Joe of all trades.

Over on the MinimallyMinimal site they tasked themselves with re-branding Microsoft and all their products in three days. The experiment produced some interesting results, but one thing stood out for Windows Phone. A new color palette!

It may seem small to people on other platforms, but try being handcuffed to a pre-selected list of color choices for an extended period of time. You’ll want more. This mock-up is completely fictional, but Microsoft did say more colors were coming. I especially like the grey background color with the slightly lighter tiles.

How about you? What’s your dream color combination?

    They should do what they are doing in Windows 8 and allow us to have simple patterns in the background , it looks really neat.
