Keep history in context

For Tap Tap Go, within Dhawal Laheri’s broader vision, an archive could explain what a previous version was trying to accomplish and which conditions shaped it. Avoid treating the old design as either sacred or embarrassing. It is evidence of a decision made in a particular context.

Use history to ask better questions

When proposing change, identify what is still valuable and what no longer fits. A durable company can honour accumulated craft without becoming trapped by it, helping colleagues improve the experience with a clearer understanding of what the earlier work achieved and why a different approach may now be appropriate.

Imagine this

A hypothetical company-building scene

Imagine a designer reviewing an earlier article format. The archive explains its purpose and constraints, enabling the designer to preserve its clarity while creating a more flexible treatment for a new kind of story.

Make it practical.
