Stop reinventing the wheel. I build robust, scalable Figma design systems that bridge the gap between design and engineering, allowing your SaaS to scale faster and with zero debt.
As a SaaS product grows, the biggest threat to quality isn't a lack of talent — it's inconsistency. Every new feature ships with slightly different buttons, spacing, and states, and the interface slowly drifts. A design system fixes that at the root: it's the single source of truth for your colors, typography, spacing, and components, so every screen looks intentional and every engineer builds from the same parts.
I build production-grade Figma design systems with design tokens, documented components, and light and dark themes driven from one semantic layer. The tokens are named to map cleanly onto CSS and popular frameworks, so the system your designers use in Figma is the same system your developers ship in code. The payoff is speed: teams assemble new screens from a trusted kit instead of reinventing the basics, and design debt stops accumulating.
You're hiring more designers and devs. Without a system, your product UI is becoming a mess of inconsistent buttons and patterns.
Your devs are tired of guessing spacing and colors. You need a design system that maps 1:1 to your code components.
You need to launch features faster. A design system provides the pre-built components that turn design time into shipping time.
A living, breathing design ecosystem tailored to your brand and technical constraints.
I catalog all existing UI patterns to identify inconsistencies and define the "source of truth."
We define the core tokens (colors, spacing, type) that ensure the system is easy to maintain and theme.
I build robust, accessible Figma components using Auto Layout, Variants, and Properties.
I work with your engineering team to ensure the design system is implemented correctly in code.
A common starting point: a product team has a few designers and a growing backlog, but no shared library. Each feature is designed in isolation, QA keeps flagging visual inconsistencies, and developers rebuild the same button five different ways. We audit the existing UI, define the token layer first — color, spacing, radius, and type — then build the base components (inputs, buttons, cards, navigation) before composing the more complex, product-specific patterns on top.
The result is a documented Figma library with variants, states, and dev-ready annotations that the whole team pulls from. On ZoApps, a reusable component system built this way covered the vast majority of UI patterns, so engineers could ship features without waiting on design for every new screen — cutting per-screen design time dramatically.

Answers to the most frequent questions about building and maintaining a design system.
Book a consultation callIt's a collection of reusable components, guided by clear standards, that can be assembled together to build any number of applications.
I specialize in the Figma (design) side, but I work closely with your developers to ensure they have everything they need to build it in React, Vue, or whatever tech stack you use.
A foundational system typically takes 4–8 weeks. We usually work in phases, delivering core components first so your team can start using them immediately.
Primarily Figma for the library, and tools like Zeroheight or Notion for documentation. I also use Figma Tokens (Tokens Studio) for advanced token management.
Yes. Many clients keep me on a design retainer for a few hours a month to oversee the evolution of the system as the product grows.
A focused foundation — tokens, core components, and light/dark theming — usually takes 3–6 weeks. Larger systems that cover complex, product-specific patterns are built in phases, so your team can start using the foundation while the rest is completed.
The system itself is delivered as a documented Figma library with variables and variants. Because the tokens are named to match CSS and framework conventions, it hands off cleanly to your engineers — and I can work alongside your team to align the coded components with the Figma source of truth.
Stop designing in silos. Build a design system that empowers your team to move faster.
