The senior director of Apple's Human Interface Design team, Billy Sorrentino, explained the motivation behind this major redesign. TapTechNews translated part of his views as follows:
As the functions, users, and libraries increase, the density of the [Photos] application also increases.
Therefore, we have created a simple, streamlined single-view photo experience based on deep intelligence. The design of the new Photos app focuses heavily on customization, allowing users to have more control over the interface layout.

By combining deep intelligence and flexible customization options, the Photos app can be more personalized. Everyone has a different workflow, so automatic customization is really crucial here.
