Microsoft Windows 7 UI

Can any one tell me what Microsoft UI technology was used to create the UI of Windows 7. And what are they using now for Windows 8?

The UI framework for Windows 7 was written with GDI/User and some Direct2D and GDI+. The common controls play into the UI (most of the explorer UI is available as a common control for example).
