Dear Stephan,
I personally wouldn't use a completly different design for installation/boot and desktop.
Can I know why? It's not a problem to OSX and windows.
A common design offers a consistent user experience.
What I could imagine, is a e.g. gray version of the wallpaper elements for install/boot and a colored version for the desktop. Color changes from e.g. green to blue are a bit strange.
Another option would be to remove most of the graphical elements from the installer (as anaconda did in the latest releases) and simplify it to e.g. just the logo on gray background.
Same goes for bootsplash.
Here is an example, to outline what I mean:

combined with:

might work. Similar elements are used. Nice color changes.
I agree. A total style break is not good. May we could use the azul4-wallpaper [1] in green for the boot-stuff and the blue one as default wallpaper?
What do you think?
Btw. the logo should IMHO be smaller and e.g. transparent. It's to prominent.
Yes, make it a blue tone from the existing palette, the white is too in your face to work with daily.
