Case Study:

Company: NerdWallet
Project: Launch Currency Design System
Role: Lead Product Designer
Team: Piper Chester,

Problem: Since NerdWallet established a design system it had struggled with team adoption. If there was any chance of this being successful, we would need to have internal product teams actively engaging with the components.

What we found: Designers didn’t know if the components were current and sometimes conflicting.

• Inconsistency and Duplication of components

• Contribution was non existent.

• No pattern library documentation was available for the designers or even engineering.

Approach: Understanding the demographic make up of our audience and users.
