About the Energy Saving Trust Design System

The Energy Saving Trust Design System website together with its GitHub code repository the contains a library of reusable components, patterns, and examples to support modern design practices at Energy Saving Trust. Additionally, it includes in-house standards, guidelines, and principles for creating inclusive, user-friendly, and effective products and services.

The Design System offers several additional benefits:

  • It serves as a centralised design knowledge platform where UX expertise, user research, and best digital practices are codified and accessible to everyone.
  • It enables our colleagues to focus on solving more complex digital problems by eliminating the need to spend time on minor visual tweaks.
  • By showcasing practical examples, it promotes understanding and consistency with our Brand Guidelines.
  • A centralised catalog of Lego-like components significantly reduces design redundancy and overall development costs.
