Hi Mahesh, thanks for your reply. I want just the text boxes and buttons should be in metro interface along with the transition effects. I want to develop for my wpf app. I know that is possible but could not find much online resources to learn and do. How can I achieve this?

You will need a good designer. Metro interface is nothing but bunch of boxes with different images and colors. Now, if you want to build metro functionality like live tiles, that will be lot of work.

Do you need that in WPF only? Visual Studio 2012 provides an HTML 5 project template for metro interface.
