Project Overview
The design system, Quaver, created for ASCAP is used across engineering teams, marketing team and within the design team. There was an inconsistent implementation of front-end components even though the design team was handing off the same assets. The front end team wasn’t using a modular approach that could be used across applications. The design system, Quaver, created for ASCAP is used across engineering teams, marketing team and within the design team.
My Contributions
To resolve this, I led the design to team to do a full audit of all of the designs. I also added to our practice to the team that all new designs should pull from a shared resource to maintain consistency and I setup the process for the design team to contribute and add to the system. Quaver continues to reduce the time it takes to create new experiences. Now the design team and engineering teams are speaking from a shared language and multiple teams are contributing to Quaver to improve usefulness across the organization perpetuating the saved time. Created a cross departmental team and worked with all managers involved to allocate time towards the design system. I worked on the initial designs and oversaw the design team as they expanded the work. I continued to contribute as needed throughout the process.
