Build Once For A Flat Fee, Reuse Forever

Design Systems
Done Right

If you're dealing with... your app looking different on every screen? Five versions of the same “primary” button? Devs still guessing what color #theblue actually is? Design and engineering stuck in an endless handoff loop? Then you need a Design System.

Built To Scale And Last

Why You Need A Design System

A Design System is a shared library of components such as buttons, forms, colors, and typography, built once and reused everywhere. It creates one visual language for your entire organization so every designer, developer, and product owner builds from the same playbook.

Stop Rebuilding. Start Scaling.

Without a system, your team wastes time rebuilding the same things over and over. Designs drift, code breaks, and the product loses consistency. With a system, you gain:

Velocity

Faster design to dev handoffs, less rework, and lower cost of maintenance.

Consistency

Every element matches your brand and behaves the same across devices.

Scalability

Add new products, features, or markets without starting from scratch.

Readiness

Multi platform by design, ready for whatever comes next.

Inside the Design System Launchpad

Our Design System Launchpad builds or fixes your design system in 4 weeks for $48k. You’ll walk away with:

  • A ready to use atomic design system that integrates with your development pipeline.
  • Documented design tokens, components, and accessibility standards.
  • A “build once, reuse forever” foundation that saves time and money across every project.

Four Weeks To A Scalable Design System

Our Design System Launchpad is a four-week process that helps your team build a living, scalable system.

We start by reviewing your design, structure, naming conventions, and documentation. Then we create a starter kit of 30 core components in Figma built from shared tokens and patterns that include accessibility and interactions.

Next, we move everything into Storybook for website design or Widgetbook for mobile design and set up your code repository (GitHub, BitBucket) syncing for easy updates.

Finally, we train your team. Designers learn how to manage and document. Developers learn how to use the shared library. Quality assurance learns to test against designs.

You finish with a ready-to-use, scalable system that ends design handoffs for good.

Week 1

Review & Audit

  • Review existing files, naming, variables, and documentation.
  • Identify gaps in design-to-dev workflow and standardize the handoff process.
  • Align on core design tokens, accessibility needs, and governance approach.

Week 2

Build the Starter Kit

  • Create a starter kit of 30 core components (atoms, molecules, organisms).
  • Unify redundant elements (for example, combining five card designs into one).
  • Include interactions, accessibility, and responsive behavior.

Week 3

System Integration

  • Transition components into Storybook or Widgetbook.
  • Mono repo with token style generation & implementation of components in React or Flutter (others available upon request), synced from Figma to code  CI/CD pipeline for GitHub actions (ADO, Bitbucket pipelines, Jenkins, others available upon request)

Week 4

Training & Governance

  • Developer and QA training: how to pull,implement and test from the shared library.
  • Designer training: managing tokens, documentation, and contribution.
  • Setup governance and handoff documentation.

Q&A

What is a design system? And why do I need a design system?

A design system is a unified set of reusable components, patterns, and guidelines that ensure consistency across digital products. It streamlines design and development, speeds up production, and creates a cohesive, scalable user experience.

What are the 4 pillars of a design system?

The four pillars are design, code, documentation, and governance, working together to align teams, maintain quality, and ensure the system evolves sustainably.

What’s the difference between a LLD design system and a HLD design system?

HLD or High Level Design defines the overall structure, patterns, and visual language, while LLD or Low Level Design focuses on the granular components, tokens, and implementation details in design tools and code.

Why does React work well for a design system?

React’s component-based architecture mirrors design systems because each component is self-contained, reusable, and easy to document or test, making it ideal for scalable design and development alignment.

What are good examples of design systems?

Examples include Atlassian ADG, Google Material Design, Salesforce Lightning, IBM Carbon, and Shopify Polaris.

What’s the difference between system design and a design system?

System design refers to software architecture and infrastructure planning, while a design system focuses on visual, interactive, and brand consistency across interfaces.

What are Storybook and Widgetbook?

Storybook and Widgetbook are tools for building, testing, and documenting UI components. Storybook is used for web frameworks like React and Vue, while Widgetbook is used for Flutter apps.

What is the “Atomic Design” methodology?

Atomic Design structures design systems from the smallest building blocks called atoms to full interfaces called pages. This hierarchy promotes consistency, scalability, and modularity.

Build It Once. Build It Right.

Most teams lose time and money rebuilding the same designs and fixing what never matched in the first place. A design system stops the chaos by aligning design and development from day one. We build it once, build it right, and never hand off again.
