Figma Design System Setup

About this Service

When your design is scattered across old files, random components, and inconsistent styles, everything slows down. Your team wastes time recreating elements that should already exist. Your product feels disjointed. Scaling becomes painful.

A well-structured design system fixes this. It gives your team a single source of truth—clean, organised, and ready to scale.

I'll take your existing Figma file or website and transform it into a fresh, organized design system that makes your team faster and your product more consistent.

What You Get

  • Component library – Reusable UI components with proper variants, states, and auto-layout (buttons, inputs, cards, navigation, and more). Built with nested instances for maximum flexibility.

  • Design variables – A unified system for colours, typography, spacing, shadows, and grid structure. Set up with Figma modes if applicable, so you can easily switch between themes (light/dark mode, brand variations, etc.).

  • Clean Figma organisation – Logical file structure that's easy to navigate, collaborate on, and hand off to developers.

  • Usage documentation – Clear guidelines on how to use components correctly and maintain consistency.

Tools

  • Figma for design and collaboration

  • Slack/Email/Google Meet for communication and updates

Process

  1. Audit – I'll review your current Figma files or website to identify what exists, what's reusable, and what needs rebuilding.

  2. Organise & build – I'll create a clean, scalable component library with nested instances and design variables. If your product needs theming, I'll leverage Figma modes to set up your structure from the start.

  3. Document – You'll receive clear usage guidelines so your team knows how to work with the system.

  4. Support – I'm available to answer questions and help your team adopt the new system smoothly.

Why This Matters

Without a design system, you're constantly reinventing the wheel. Designs drift. Developers guess. Updates take longer than they should.

A design system eliminates that friction. It speeds up your workflow, keeps your product consistent, and makes scaling straightforward.

Let's turn your design chaos into a system that saves time and sets you up for future design and development.
