Forge Design System
A token-first design system unifying eight independent product teams under one component library — shipping 240 components in three months.
Building consistency across 8 product teams.
Eight independent product teams were each maintaining their own component libraries, leading to UI inconsistencies, duplicated work, and a fragmented user experience across the entire product suite.
A single source of truth with Figma + React tokens.
We built a token-first design system using CSS custom properties linked directly to Figma variables. A Storybook-powered component library provided typed React components with automated visual regression testing on every PR.
