Recently I was given the opportunity to work on a side project with Alex Styl and another craftsman because Novoda wanted to showcase an Android TV demo to our client.
Firstly, I collected everything I could find about not only Android TV but anything to do with design for big screens including blog posts, videos and guidelines. Unfortunately, I have to say, compared to design resources for tablets and phones, there is very little available for Android TV.
For that reason I decided to create some resources myself! I came up with the idea of an Android TV design template that anyone interested in designing for the big screen could use as a starting point. It’s based on the screenshots from the Android TV Design Guidelines.

Feel free to download the kit from GitHub or sketchappsources website, use it in your projects, and share it with your coworkers!
