Design System Workshop

Get the team aligned on the design system in two days

Designers, engineers and product owners describe the same system differently. Decisions stall because nobody owns them. The workshop starts with prep work, works through the hard questions in two facilitated days and ends with a written analysis the team can act on.

Design System Workshop

Use a workshop when the team needs a shared picture

  • Design and engineering describe the system in different terms
  • A rebuild, migration or new brand is coming and the plan is unclear
  • Ownership of components and tokens is undecided
  • Earlier initiatives started strong and stalled

What the workshop covers

Prep work maps the current setup through short interviews and a review of the components, tokens and documentation in use. The two days work through priorities, ownership and next steps with the people who make the decisions. The analysis afterwards records what was agreed and what is still open.

Not included unless scoped separately

  • Building or rebuilding components
  • A full design system audit
  • Ongoing facilitation after the analysis

How the workshop runs

  1. Interview key people and review the current setup before the first day.
  2. Day one: map the system, the people who use it and where it fails them.
  3. Day two: agree on priorities, ownership and a sequence for the next steps.
  4. Deliver a written analysis with findings and a plan for next steps.

What you receive

  • A summary of the prep interviews and setup review
  • Workshop outputs captured and cleaned up
  • A written analysis of findings and open questions
  • A prioritised plan for next steps
