Case study

Problem

A configurable platform must support different visual identities without allowing its components and interaction patterns to drift apart.

Role and scope

I designed the configurator experience and its design-system guidance, covering component configuration, live previews, search and filter patterns, and usage documentation.

Key decisions

Place editable properties beside a live component preview so changes are immediately understandable.
Organise the system around foundations and reusable components, from typography and colours to buttons and inputs.
Document complex search and filter states with concrete examples and behavioural guidance.

Outcome

The result is one interface for configuring, previewing, and documenting reusable platform components.

Configur8 button editor with configurable typography, spacing, colour, and interaction states — The configurator brings component properties and a live preview together, making design-system changes visible before they are published.

Advanced filter interface with multiple field conditions and values — Complex search and filtering requirements are expressed through familiar patterns, clear states, and actionable controls.

Structured search field with filter tokens and grouped suggestions — Complex search and filtering requirements are expressed through familiar patterns, clear states, and actionable controls.

Configur8 typography guidance with heading and paragraph specifications — The design-system documentation explains foundations, component variants, states, and intended usage through concrete examples.

Configur8 colour-system guidance and palette examples — The design-system documentation explains foundations, component variants, states, and intended usage through concrete examples.
