What are design systems?

One of the recent hot topics in the industry, a Design System simply put is a document highlighting the single source of truth which contains all the elements and guidelines to allow a team to design, realise and build a product effectively.

A Design System is a set of rules, principles and constraints implemented in the creation of a product or website. This also contains a reusable library of components with the guidelines for how to use them effectively.

Rush Hour Media was launched in 2012 to revolutionise Hong Kong’s online landscape. Those were big words coming from a team of two working out of a tiny room in Central, where my original co-founder, Jake, lived when he arrived HK.
