Best design pattern for the top level of any app is a singleton.

Hi,

Presentational Framework always depends on the technologies that you are choosing.

For example:

WPF - MVVM
Winforms - MVP
ASP.Net - MVC

Note: If you want to implement MVVM pattern with Winforms, that is also possible. But you need to write lot of code to achieve this. Whereas it is easy to implement MVVM using WPF because of its features.

Coming back to your question: If you want to implement small windows application, I would suggest to go for WPF using MVVM since it is latest technology and powerful. You can easily implement a loosely coupled architecture using MVVM.

Thanks,
Siva
