Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the questions we get asked about design systems. If there is something you want to know that isn't covered here, please get in touch.

Ask a question

How does a design system improve collaboration between designers and developers?

A design system enhances collaboration between designers and developers by:

  • Shared Language: It establishes a common language and centralised guidelines, improving communication and reducing misunderstandings.
  • Efficient Handoff: Detailed specifications and accessible design assets streamline the implementation process, ensuring accurate translation of the design vision.
  • Consistent Experience: Using the same design elements promotes a unified and seamless user experience.
  • Iterative Feedback: It encourages continuous improvement through feedback loops between designers and developers.
  • Easy Updates: System-level changes automatically reflect across all components, simplifying maintenance.

Overall, a design system aligns teams, improving collaboration and leading to better products.

Can a design system be customised to fit company's branding?

Yes, it can be customised to reflect a company’s visual style. Its primary aim is to ensure consistency while embodying the brand identity.

A well-designed system provides guidelines for typography, colour palettes, and iconography, allowing flexibility to match the brand. This lets designers create interfaces that align with the company’s aesthetics. Customising elements like colours, logos, or icons makes the design system an extension of the brand, ensuring a consistent visual experience. However, it’s vital to balance customisation with consistency, keeping core components stable to maintain cohesion. A design system can be tailored to fit a company’s unique branding while ensuring consistency across digital products.

How can it help streamline the onboarding process?

A design system speeds up onboarding for new team members by:

  • Unified Design Standards: Clear guidelines help new members quickly align with existing principles.
  • Faster Component Familiarisation: A library of reusable components aids in efficient use of design assets.
  • Enhanced Collaboration: Easy access to documentation supports seamless team integration.
  • Accelerated Workflow: Established patterns enable quicker design and development.
  • Consistent User Experience: Ensures uniformity, helping maintain cohesive designs.

In short, it helps new members integrate faster, contribute effectively, and ensure consistency.

Is it the same as a component library?

No, a design system is not the same as a component library, though a component library is often part of it.

Design System is a comprehensive framework that includes guidelines, principles, and assets to ensure a consistent design approach across a product or organisation. It covers more than just visual components, incorporating brand guidelines, interaction patterns, design principles, and user experience considerations.

Component Library is a part of a design system. It contains reusable UI components like buttons, forms, and navigation elements. These components are standardised and pre-coded to ensure consistency in design and development.

In short, it’s a broader framework that guides overall design, while a component library is a specific collection of reusable UI elements within that system.
