Public limits: internal Morgan Stanley processes.

Five months helping establish the frontend architecture and visual system for an institutional finance concept. Angular, TypeScript, Sass.

Regulated environment. Clarity carried the system. The work was about making the structure of the application visible at a glance, so traders and operations staff could see the state of the world without having to interpret it. Most of the design decisions were subtractive.

Internal Morgan Stanley processes are off-limits. The public version is what the system looked like and how it was built, not how it was run.
