Well we had modern UIs with appearance + function. It was during the Frutiger Aero era (mac OS X, Windows Vista). But that got lost somehow, and that makes me sad :(
I consider that a transition time, not Modern. Windows had frames but were more subdued than 1990's style. Buttons were still distinguished from text.
Yeah, it was probably peak UI.
