Principles

Draft

Voyager is the collection of patterns, components that guide the building of Quantum Workplace product. The goal of this System is to provide a unified experience when designing and building products.

Make it feel personal.

All our experiences are designed with the end user in mind. Features are rooted in a deep understanding of our users, and the tools and workflows they need to make their workplace better. We deliver delight, personality, and empathy readily when appropriate, and integrate seamlessly with our user’s company culture.

Start with the problem.

We recognize jumping to building solutions without a thorough knowledge of the problem will lead to ineffective, fragmented products. Before we put pen to paper, we have an understanding of the problems we’re seeking to solve, and how to build testable, usable solutions.

To create products that make a difference for our users, we need to first understand the problems they face every day. Defining the problem to solve before diving into delivery ensures we are focusing on what matters most to the people who will use the solution.

Outcomes don’t happen without output.

Products that serve our customers and meet our company's objectives don't build themselves. We validate hypotheses, prototype relentlessly, and prioritize collaboration in our pursuit of a user-focused platform.

Build consistency. Deliver clarity.

Consistency not only builds trust, it allows users to intuitively move across our platform with little cognitive overhead. Where it makes sense, consistency should be key. However, when consistency is at odds with clarity, simplicity of use should be prioritized over rigid rules.
