What is a design system

A design system is a collection of reusable components, guidelines, and standards that unify the look, feel, and behavior of a digital product. It helps teams build faster, maintain consistency across platforms, and scale products efficiently while keeping design and development aligned.

Design system benefits

Consistency

They make it easier to adapt and grow with the product's evolution, maintaining consistency, providing high design standards and reduction of errors.

Efficiency

Reusable components save time and resources during the design and development process.

Scalability

Facilitates easy scaling of products by using existing components for new features.

Improved quality

Uniform design elements across the product result in a predictable and intuitive user experience.

Collaboration

Design systems streamline communication & collaboration between designers, developers, and stakeholders.

Smoother onboarding

Helps new team members quickly learn processes and guidelines, making onboarding smoother.

Key metrics

In short, design systems translate into faster delivery, higher ROI, and more efficient teams.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if I need a design system?

Implementing a design system is a strategic choice driven by your product’s needs. Key signals include:

  • Inconsistency in design—your product feels fragmented across platforms or loses brand identity.
  • Low developer efficiency due to recreating UI elements
  • The product has multiple themes (light/dark), platforms or screen sizes that you need to manage.
  • You wish to reduce repetitive design work and accelerate development cycles.
  • Poor communication and lack of shared language between development and design.
  • You wish to accelerate the onboarding speed for new team members.
  • The product development documentation is fragmented and you don’t have singular source of truth.

Before adopting, assess your team’s workflow, product challenges, and areas where a design system can add the most value. Here we can help you out with our Design System Audit service.

When design system is not for me?

There are some potential hurdles and limitations that may prevent you from implementing a design system or make it provide little value:

  • You cannot allocate a dedicated design system team. Creating and maintaining a design system is a time-intensive activity that requires one.
  • You may lack resources to onboard new team members onto the design system.
  • Your projects are static, one-off creations that generally don’t benefit from reusable components.
  • When you are constantly experimenting and iterating with high uncertainty in design patterns, committing to a design system too early can create constraints.

How much does a design system cost?

The cost of a design system depends on project complexity, the services required, and the expertise of the agency or consultant. Projects can range from a few thousand euros to higher budgets, depending on the level of customization and ongoing support.

How much time does it take to implement a design system?

The time to implement a design system varies depending on the size and complexity of your product, the number of platforms involved, and the level of customization required. For small to medium products, it typically takes a few weeks, while larger or enterprise-scale systems can take a month to half a year to adopt. Ongoing maintenance and updates continue beyond the initial implementation.
