Redesign of Adobe’s File Type Icon System Language #interactive

I love this quote from the Adobe branding team: "Evolving a brand design system that contains hundreds of products relies on a million small, incremental changes along the way — we snip a branch here and there, and guide the tree to grow in our desired direction over time." Read about the rebranding process of the #interactive Adobe file icon system language below. How did the team organize all of the file type icons into a viewable, comprehensive system? Then, how did they reorganize the system? What prompted design changes once they evaluated the icons within the system?
