Streamlining and expanding educational access

Faced with a fragmented user interface, inconsistent user experience, and a fast-evolving digital landscape, the project aimed to develop a comprehensive design system within an ambitious timeline.


The design system for Generation.org was planned with clarity and simplicity at its core, striving to connect the various facets of the educational platform into a singular, user-friendly interface. The intent was to ensure that learners and educators worldwide could easily navigate and use the platform, backed by a system that supports not just present needs but also future growth.


Essential to this was building a system that adheres to accessibility guidelines, making education more attainable for all users, and simplifying the development process to allow for quick and continuous improvements and updates.
