A design system is more than a component library in Figma. It's the shared foundation that lets design and development speak the same language.

## What does a design system include?
A design system gathers reusable components, design tokens for color and typography, and guidelines for how they're combined. It means new pages and features are built faster and look consistent, no matter who on the team designs or codes. For growing companies, it becomes an investment that pays off every time a new interface needs to be built.

## What we build in a design system
- Component library in Figma
- Design tokens for color, typography, and spacing
- Guidelines for interaction and states
- Coded component base for the development team
- Documentation that keeps the system alive

## Why build a design system now?
Many wait until inconsistency is already a problem. We build design systems alongside ongoing design deliveries, so it grows naturally instead of becoming a separate, large project.

## FAQ

**Do we need a design system if we're a small team?**

Yes, even small teams save time by not reinventing components for every new surface.

**Is it only for digital products?**

No, a design system can also cover presentations, templates, and printed material.

**How is the system maintained over time?**

We build in a process for ongoing updates so the system never becomes outdated.

**Can you build on our existing system?**

Yes, we can revise and expand a system you already have instead of starting over.
