Do small teams need a design system?

Yes, small teams can absolutely benefit from a design system. It doesn’t need to be complex—just a shared Figma page or style guide with consistent colors, typography, and common components (like buttons or forms) can make a big difference.

This helps:

  • Maintain consistency across designs

  • Speed up design and development

  • Onboard new team members or contractors faster

Keep it lean and practical. Start with basics, and scale it gradually if your team or product grows. Even a mini system adds real value without slowing you down.
