Having an efficient filing and storage structure is crucial for maintaining order and ensuring that important documents are easily accessible when needed. This is especially important in design, where there are so many assets to consider.
We currently use Google Drive to store Brand Design assets. You can find the directory here. If you don’t have access and need it after receiving assets, reach out to the Design team via Slack!

Consistent naming practice is crucial for being able to find different files. It also matters a lot for testing assets via performance channels, so it’s important for us to have a correct naming convention from the get-go.
