I'm half way through an ASP MVC4 project at the moment which renders HTML5. It's going really well so far. Instead of coming up with my own HTML5 design, I've decided to use Foundation3's, which has some really nice features in automatically adapting for mobile devices and tablets.
Similarly to the Twitter bootstrap mentioned before, there's a NuGet Package to install all of Foundation3 pre-requisites into an MVC4 project: http://www.nuget.org/packages/Foundation3_MVC4 It includes a Master Page and a sample page. The only thing I've done myself is replaced the default MVC "View" scaffolding templates with my own based on Foundation3. But replacing these templates is something I'd normally do anyway.
