FICTIONAL CASE STUDY / Design system

Petal Kit

A small library that speaks clearly.

Give designers and developers a component reference they can read together.

Audience

Small product teams sharing responsibility for an interface.

Constraints

Each variant and interaction state needs a concrete use case.

My contribution

Component taxonomy, semantic tokens and a handoff specimen.

FICTIONAL CONCEPT DESIGN

Design outputs

Three views of the Petal Kit interface.

Petal Kit concept, Component library

Component library

Buttons and badges are grouped by purpose, with component names and examples ready for handoff.

Button states

Default, focus, and unavailable examples sit side by side so developers can compare appearance and behavior.

Badge specimen

The status badge appears with its semantic token and usage note so the team can apply it consistently.

TRY THE DESIGN

A small task to try.

Choose a component, change its variant and state, then read its token and usage note.

Fictional design prototype with sample data. Changes stay on this page.

THE TRADE-OFF

What else could work?

A static gallery is quick to scan. An adjustable specimen makes differences easier to compare.

DESIGN NOTE 01

The decision in view.

The specimen, token and usage note change together to keep each choice traceable.

NEXT TEST

What I’d check next.

See if two collaborators independently choose the same variant for a shared requirement.
