Growth Pains
Scaling Design Systems
You built your design system from the ground up. It was perfect. Fit for every use case. But now your design team has grown, and you're stretching that poor system to its limits. Now what?
We've worked on and scaled design systems that were touched by (literally) 200+ designer, UX researchers, developers, and content strategists on a daily basis. Things break easily at this scale, and friction becomes commonplace. So we've developed a method to this madness, to provide you with levers to establish control over your growing design systems, and implement a process of cognizant gatekeeping.

Teams that are experiencing the pains of growing their teams, and the design systems that (are supposed to) empower them.
Setting Expectations
Each workshop is tailored specifically to your team, but they all follow a similar format.
Uniquely Yours
We'll shoot you a series of questions upfront to get to know your team, and your product. And we'll tailor the workshop content to be just right, based on your data, your goals, and your needs.
Hands-On Engagement
You can't spell workshop without "work". We'll get you up and about, writing sticky notes, and drawing masterpieces. Whether you're a regular virtuoso or a stick figure Michelangelo, we'll get you in there.
Wherever You Are
All workshops are in-person. No virtualsies. We've found it much easier to keep an entire group engaged and actively interested, and pick up any stragglers, with an in-person format.
