Intrigued, I whipped up a quick design in Photoshop to collect my ideas. This was exactly the type of project I felt could affect several departments within Airbnb. One day our VP of Design, Alex Schleifer, mentioned in passing that it would be cool if we had some sort of tool where designers could see all of the different views of our app. While my official job description is to create tools for the Design team at Airbnb, I also try to keep in mind how the tools I develop can help the entire company.
