Spectrum
My Role – 2014/2022
UI/UX Designer,
Asset Generation,
Approach / Process:
Consistently applied the Adobe Spectrum Design System across all UI/UX deliverables (internal tools, pitch demos, external products).
Identified limitations and gaps within the existing Spectrum system due to the team's focus on cutting-edge customer pitch requirements.
Proactively initiated internal discussions and gained approval to expand upon the standard Spectrum library.
Designed and implemented new UI components and design patterns to address specific needs not covered by the existing system.
Ensured all new contributions adhered to Spectrum's core design principles and maintained consistency with the overall system.
Project Impact / Results:
Directly contributed to the evolution and expansion of the core Adobe Spectrum Design System.
Several design elements and patterns created by our team were officially integrated into the Spectrum system.
Our contributions became part of Adobe's broader design language, benefiting other product teams and projects.
The Spectrum design team further refined and built upon our initial work, demonstrating the value and scalability of our contributions.
Demonstrated ability to not only utilize but also actively contribute to and improve a large-scale design system based on real-world needs.
