I worked within an existing design system foundation: typography, colors, basic styles, and atomic elements were already defined by a dedicated design system team.

My work focused on more complex UI components. I analyzed existing examples, expanded the reference set where needed, and compared how similar patterns were used across different pages and product areas.

For each component, I helped define the unified version: what should stay flexible, what should be fixed, and how the component should behave in different states, layouts, and screen resolutions.

Localization was part of the review. I checked how components handled longer labels and different languages, including cases where German text could affect spacing, wrapping, and layout behavior.

The final output was a detailed specification for development, aligned with business stakeholders and prepared for implementation.
