Semantic Zoom
A real company has hundreds of apps. Showing all of them at once is noise; the map needed to zoom like Google Maps, adding detail as you go in.
A test map steps from one company block, to twelve team blocks, to about 166 apps on nested ground tiles. Smooth expanding, merged flows and automatic layout were planned but not built.
