Google - Chromecast Audio
As part of the apps and hardware team, I lead software design for this new Google product. This simple adapter is the best way to stream music to existing speakers and multiple rooms throughout the house.

New devices are auto-detected in the Chromecast app. A simple set of cards were designed to represent the variety of devices and their status (e.g., active vs inactive).
Since music is best enjoyed loudly and without interruptions, Chromecast Audio was designed to link multiple speakers and support multi-room playback.
Chromecast Audio works with existing apps on both iOS and Android. Users simply press the "Cast" button to quickly stream content through their speakers.
Most speakers don't have a screen to communicate media actions. To improve usability, I directed the design of the key sounds heard when interacting with the device. The sounds provide feedback for users and create a brand personality for the product.
I design digital experiences for customers.
