It feels like we've all agreed that components are the bread and butter of design systems. Is this how we should be viewing it? Or are patterns the better place to focus?

Stop building components, start building patterns

Love to start my day with a cancelled meeting

A colleague and I discussed the relationship between a company's visual identity and their product's “look and feel”.

Does your design systems team own your product's visual language? Do they partner with another team responsible for that? Or something else entirely?

Cooler weather and between soccer seasons? Perfect time to hop back on the boards.

Proud of my team!  🎉
Our eBay design system + brand team has been working on this collaboration for several years and I'm super excited it went public today.

Shorter days and a busy schedule in Helsinki, but we managed to sneak in a walk while the lighting was prime.

Equally excited and bummed for Silo’s finale

Trying to remember the photo storage sites we all used in the early/mid 2000’s

Flickr? Photobucket? Anything else?

I finally released this 😌 I use it to test my own handwriting fonts and wanted to make it available for others too: https://typeheist.co/template-guide/type-testing-template/

Best practices for aligning table content that you should…
• Right align numerical data
• Left align textual data
• Avoid center alignment

But what about generated, alphanumeric strings? Right or left alignment?

🚀 v7 of my Figma Community file is now available

A curation of newer and lesser-known specimens from the Google Fonts library. Each typeface is already included in Figma’s design files — no downloading or installing needed.

Took our boys to a car show last weekend. I gave them my old GoPro and my youngest used it to capture his own footage.

Kicking off the new year with a revamp of our design system’s color tokens. When all is said and done, all the lil’ websites can tap into some color mode options. What a time!

Mix architectural patterns with some motion, noise, and color and you get abstract visuals that speak to design systems.

As a systems designer, I tend to geek out over Figma's smaller/less popular updates. Like this “Show subfolders” option in the Assets panel. I'm sure that everyone maintaining a design system rejoiced like I did.
