The creative director, author and speaker explains why design systems are so important.

Dan Mall

You’re well known in the web design community for your books, talks and work with big clients. But can you introduce yourself to those who might not know you?

DM: Hi, I’m Dan, a creative director and advisor from Philly. I’m founder and director of SuperFriendly, a design collaborative that brings creative direction and design to some the world’s most important and interesting organisations. I’m also the co-founder and CEO of SuperBooked, a service that helps you find work with a little help from your friends.

You’ve just launched a course about design systems. What can you tell us about that?

DM: It’s a video-based course on Skillshare about how to create and work with design systems and get your colleagues on board. A design system is a tool to make you more efficient and effective in your work. It should help you move faster, work better with other people and, honestly, just have more fun.
