Abstract

One embodiment is directed to a method for building an object for display by a client device. The method includes transmitting, by a client device, a request to an object storage device for a class of objects. The method includes receiving, by the client device, a list of objects of the class of objects requested, the list of objects including an interface attribute, the interface attribute configured to direct the client device to a set of display properties for each object of the list of objects. The method also includes executing, by the client device, the interface attribute to retrieve the set of display properties associated with the display of each object of the class of objects, the set of display properties of each object defining a visual representation of that object by the client device.
