Design for machines
Unifying eight design systems into four, rebuilt for AI to consume.
Problem
Eight design systems, one per business line. Over time they drifted, from each other and from the brand, and maintaining all eight got expensive.
Insight
The next user of a design system is a machine. AI can build an interface on its own. What it can't know is how each business should look and behave - and without that written down, every business gets the same generic screen.
Solution
One platform that carries what the machine can't guess. Four systems instead of eight, each business's look and behavior built in. Co-wrote the strategy and made the case to leadership.
Outcome
A twelve-person platform team, collapsing eight systems into four. Each business's brand and behavior built in - so the AI tooling generates the right screen, on demand, every time.
