Principled talks to Trip about implementing a design system called Momentum for the Webex Suite, a group of 34 products all developed or acquired at different times. In Trip’s view, the principle of building an open, extensible platform has a lot of power. He says it’s easier to sell a customer a new product if looks and works like a product they already have. Trip and his team talked to many different product teams to design usable, adaptable elements for the Webex Suite. These centralized building blocks help scale change and free up developers’ time so they can focus on solving user needs.

2:45 The fun and the difficult in solving the problem
3:55 Common frameworks help scale change
5:36 Helping engineers focus on user needs versus design
7:31 Product principles help make the case for dedicated engineering support
8:55 Creating the Momentum unified design library
9:45 The iPad and the iPencil make drawing fun
