design system POC

Scalable design-token architecture, from someone who started as a designer.

the short version

Proof-of-concept design system built around scalable design-token architecture, bridging design-to-dev consistency at platform scale. This site runs on the same thinking: a tokenized personal design system, ink and paper, built before the pages were.

Full case study in progress — artifacts pending clearance or writing time. The insight below is already earned.

Tokens are governance for pixels — the same platform thinking, applied at the smallest unit of design.
