Summary
BIM is a digital wallet that lets people transfer money to others and to other digital wallets. I designed the design system from scratch, defining the visual identity, foundations, and components together with the project's UX Lead.
The challenge
Creating a solid foundation that ensured consistency, scalability, and efficiency for a team of 5 designers reworking specific sections of the app's flow.
Visual inconsistency
Preventing designers from creating different experiences within the same product.
Lack of scalability
No components or tokens had been defined for the app.
Multiple platforms
The app had to work on both iOS and Android while keeping a consistent experience.
My role
I was the product designer in charge of the Design System for the BIM app. I worked alongside the UX Lead to define the foundations, create components, and plan the DS build-out around the Product Designers involved in the project.
Strategy
Defining design principles and system pillars aligned with the business and users.
Design
Creating foundations, components, patterns, and documentation for development.
Collaboration
Ongoing work with Product Designers to ensure adoption of the system in design.
Documentation
Documentation in Figma for development.
Process
We worked iteratively with the design team, validating decisions together.
Research
Analysis of the current app, benchmarking, and business needs.
Foundations
Defining colors, typography, spacing, iconography, and elevation.
Components
Designing reusable components and interaction patterns.
Documentation
Component anatomy, spacing, and accessibility notes.
Adoption
Supporting the design team's adoption across each flow, with weekly reviews.
