Setting Up Design Rules for Everyone

After making my design elements neat and tidy, the next step was to create simple design rules that work for everyone, no matter the platform.

These rules helped me easily make new parts (like the examples above) and grow my design system.

Usually, design rules can be very complicated, taking a lot of time to understand (who wants that?).

In my experience, simple rules are better. If you want your product team to actually use and get the rules, it's important to make them short and easy to remember.
Simple rules let me be creative while still keeping things looking good. I've listed my design rules below.

Taurus Icon set

Curating a Diverse Icon Collection

Having organized my design elements, I then set out to create a rich collection of icons that could serve a wide range of purposes across various platforms.

This comprehensive icon collection provides an extensive array of options (as showcased in the examples above) to enhance and expand my design system.

Icon collections often tend to be overwhelming, making it challenging to find the right icon (who has the time for that?).

From my experience, simplicity and organization are key to a successful icon collection. To ensure usability and seamless integration, it's crucial to categorize and tag the icons efficiently, making them easy to browse and select.

Buttons styles and types

Crafting Versatile Buttons

In the realm of buttons, I've taken care to craft a versatile collection that adapts seamlessly to different contexts and platforms. These buttons are designed to be user-friendly, enhancing the overall user experience while maintaining a cohesive look and feel throughout my design system.

Buttons can often become unnecessarily complex, causing confusion for users (we don't want that). In my approach, simplicity reigns supreme.
I've ensured that these buttons are easy to understand and use, with clear labeling and intuitive interactions. Whether it's primary action buttons, secondary buttons, or other button types, I've tailored each one to serve its purpose effectively.
To promote consistency and flexibility, I've categorized and documented these buttons below, making it effortless for you to integrate them into your designs.

Typography and Leveling

Typography, Leveling, and Spacing Harmony

In the realm of typography, leveling, and spacing, I've dedicated meticulous attention to ensure a harmonious and coherent visual language.
This harmonization not only enhances the overall aesthetic but also contributes to a consistent user experience throughout my design system.

Typography, leveling, and spacing can often be a source of confusion and inconsistency (we want to avoid that). Therefore, I've prioritized clarity and uniformity.
The chosen typefaces are legible and versatile, striking the right balance between readability and aesthetics.
The spacing and leveling guidelines ensure that elements align with precision, creating a polished and professional appearance.

Form elements

Enhancing User Interactions with Form Elements

When it comes to form elements, including inputs, selects, checkboxes, and various other HTML elements used for forms, I've put meticulous effort into optimizing the user experience. These elements are the building blocks of user interactions, and ensuring their usability and consistency is paramount.

Form elements can often be a source of frustration when they're not well-designed (we aim to avoid that). Therefore, I've focused on user-friendliness and uniformity.
Inputs are designed to be clear and intuitive, select elements offer straightforward options, and checkboxes maintain a standard appearance. Additionally, I've considered accessibility principles to ensure all users can interact with these elements effectively.

Table design

Creating Adaptable Tables and Table Elements

In the realm of responsive tables and table elements, I've dedicated careful consideration to ensure adaptability across various screen sizes and devices. These elements play a pivotal role in presenting structured data and information, and their responsiveness is crucial for a seamless user experience.

Tables can pose challenges when it comes to responsiveness and accessibility (we aim to overcome those challenges).
Therefore, I've designed these tables to gracefully adapt to different screen sizes while maintaining clarity and legibility.
Additionally, I've integrated accessibility features to ensure that all users, regardless of their abilities, can access and interact with table content effectively.

To simplify the process of incorporating responsive tables and table elements into your designs, I've documented the guidelines and best practices below. This resource will assist you in creating tables that are not only functional but also responsive and inclusive.

Banners

Engaging Users with Banners and Informative Popups

In the realm of banners and informative popups, I've taken a user-centric approach to engage and communicate effectively with your audience. These elements serve as powerful tools to convey important messages, promotions, or critical information while ensuring a seamless user experience.

Banners and popups can sometimes disrupt the user journey, so it's essential to design them with care and precision (we want to make them helpful and unobtrusive).
I've focused on clarity and user-friendliness, making sure that the messages are easy to understand and dismiss if necessary.
Additionally, I've considered responsive design to ensure these elements look and function well across different devices and screen sizes.
