you've strategically hit upon the logo & icon portfolio and blog of UK logo designer Graham Smith — the original Logo Smith since '86.
Quite possibly the most outstanding retro-concept mash-up of the Apple iPhone iOS and vintage Macintosh OS circa 1986 which would put these OS Icons around System Software 3.0-3.2.
Those monochrome icons look particularly at home within on the black iPhone 4 body. I absolutely and positively believe this is a huge improvement over the existing iOS theme and would like to slap anyone in the face if they think otherwise.
Can’t quite determine the designery attributary particulars as it’s all hosted on a LiveJournal blog with absolutely no information save for the username: reopen and I can’t even be sure these are the property of this reopen
Update: This fine fine work belongs to Anton Repponen

Not that I’m biased or anything (working for Nokia), but is it the simple, 2-color high contrast look that makes it a huge improvement? If so you might like WP7 and its clean Metro tiles.
