I'm in the process of creating an OSX application to be used by professionals, and want to adopt the dull/gray look of Final Cut Studio and other professional-use applications. I want the interface to be toned down, to be less distracting while trying to create the rich content, probably similar to Apple's rationality, and I think is justification to break away from standard HIG.
I was wondering if anyone has done something similar, and has any pointers or examples.
Thanks :)
