I just blogged about The Big Design Refactor over at the Pivotal Labs blog.
Design starts with systematic thinking and then shifts to incremental changes. No matter where a project starts, at some point the design systems’ integrity will degrade to the point that you need to look at the whole thing fresh. Welcome to the Big Design Refactor. In the beginning, you had a beautiful, functional design system. And then you had to watch, helplessly, as it degraded under the weight of a thousand tiny changes. What can you do?
Check it out, and let me know what you think in the comments!
