Design-System Component Library in Figma for a Travel Brand
Overview
What this challenge is about.
Design-System Component Library in Figma for a Travel Brand. Intermediate challenge in design. Designing real products under real constraints, earn a blockch...
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Replace 14 inconsistent component variants across 7 squads with a single Figma component library covering the 12 most-used components.
This is not a design exercise. It is the work a product designer does between a brief and a shipped interface. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates redesign Spotify's homepage and none who have worked under real product constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Audit a real product to surface component-variant sprawl
- Design canonical Figma components with properties + variables
- Write component documentation that prevents misuse
- Plan and measure design-system adoption across multiple squads
