Unity is constantly evolving in the looks department. Components start to match and integrate better with each other in every new cycle:

- launcher and its elements now matches the chameleonic dash.

- notify-osd now matches too. example:

Now, are there any plans to explore the remaining elements like matching panel, window borders and maybe some extra theming in the next cycles (after the lts) ?

I think unity could become more beautiful, than any current desktop.

I've found some examples (some very similar or inspired by unity) of panels/borders in this gallery and i must say they would look great:

some of my favorites are:

http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/Falling-Indeed-175711205 (nice panel and vertical menu)

http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/Lazy-Day-162669024 (very nice overall and borders)

http://thewildsider.deviantart.com/art/W-equal-DT-162260213 (borders look good)


that's one of my hopes for upcoming cycles :)
