Building Design Systems that work for your whole Organisation
Sarrah Vesselov
About the Talk
Design systems (DS) are not just for designers. A good DS provides a solid foundation for your organization, enabling product managers and engineers to make decisions without relying on constant feedback from you and your team. In turn, designers gain time to focus on exploring and solving more complex user problems.
But what happens when an expert in Design Systems enters a stage of the process where it seems like it’s all about to fall apart? Sarrah will share how she and her team pushed through to keep Honeycomb.io’s design system alive.
