User Experience Principles with Billy Hollis
Play Design or Die: The Challenge to the Microsoft Developer Ecosystem
Description
Okay, here's the deal. We're not behind on modern, mobile, touch-based technologies. Microsoft's entries are as good as or better than anything out there. Where we *are* behind is the will, determination, and skills to use those technologies to create better designs. This session challenges you to do better. See real projects that produced stunning results, hear about the most important concepts you've probably never applied to app design before, and learn about options to follow your own path to adding the skills for designing modern apps.

At 48:14, Billy wonders why the Cosmopolitan was designed the like a "fort".
According to the Rockwell Group's website (http://www.rockwellgroup.com/projects/entry/the-cosmopolitan-of-las-vegas):
The nearly 3,000 guest rooms are designed like chic, urban, luxury residences. Each room is filled with custom furniture, and layered in custom materials and finishes to give every guest a unique sense of city living, even if they're just there for the weekend.
