When the Fresh packs were released, Stamga proved that he could obviously design abstract wallpapers very well whilst including his own personal spin on them which you can see in most of his wallpapers. They're all incredibly soft looking and he has perfected making wallpapers without getting gradient banding.

Vision

I gave vision 4 stars because it was incredibly clear what he hoped to achieve when he made these wallpapers, while at first I was planning on working on a Pure pack with him, I didn't have the time so he took it in to his own hands and made it much better than I originally anticipated. They are pure looking, and they great for the minimalist.

Originality

It's difficult to be original when making this kind of wallpaper because they're just subtle blends of colours, but what makes this pack stand out from the rest is the amazing pick of colours (although having two green ones is a bit odd, as Sunset in my opinion is a lot nicer than Fresh but they're still both very good) and their vibrancy. Again, it's difficult to get such beautiful vibrancy without the banding of gradients or adding excessive noise. This I guess also explains my rating for technique; just the right amount of noise was added, and the texture actually makes them very impressive.

On the surface, the presentation is also fantastic, displaying the use of his very own Windows monitor icon to display such beautiful wallpapers.

I highly recommend this wallpaper pack to those who love a clean, bright and colourful, minimalist desktop. The different colours are beautiful on a slideshow, and they'll make it look a lot cleaner that it has before. Well done
