Design System Examples

Overview
Designed and implemented 3+ comprehensive design systems tailored to diverse companies, team sizes, and unique challenges. Built from scratch in Figma to streamline collaboration between designers and developers for seamless execution.
Learnings
Structured design files around three core concepts: Foundations, Base Components, and Composed Components. Emphasized detailed documentation and consistent naming conventions to foster collaboration and create a robust design system.

Design Systems Structure
Built 3+ design systems
A well-organized design system is the key to efficiency and consistency.

1. Foundation: The DNA of Design. This base layer holds design tokens (colors, typography, spacing) and assets (logos, icons). Updates here ripple across the system, ensuring consistency with minimal effort.

2. Base Components: Modular Building Blocks. Reusable components like buttons, checkboxes, and accordions create a flexible, scalable library that reduces design debt and streamlines workflows.

3. Composed Components: Tailored Solutions. Custom combinations of base components meet specific needs, such as navigation bars, content cards, or modals. These high-level components ensure consistency while addressing unique interface demands.

A clear file structure empowers teams to collaborate seamlessly, ensuring designs are scalable, consistent, and easy to implement.

How does your design system stack up?
Naming Convention for Variables
Users should be able understand the purpose of any given token at a glance.

What naming challenges have you faced in your design systems?
Collaboration with developers
Investing in documentation and collaboration transforms a design system from a static repository into a dynamic tool that empowers teams and scales with your product.

Are your designers and developers speaking the same language?
