Planning

  • Want a nature based color palette - greens and browns

  • Good amount of spacing in order to not create overwhelming visual

  • Soft corners, “gentle” design

  • Easy to understand language

Atomic Design

Atomic Design, created by Brad Frost, is defined as “a methodology composed of five distinct stages working together to create interface design systems in a more deliberate and hierarchical manner”

  • Serve as the foundational building blocks that comprise all our user interfaces

  • Simple groups of UI elements functioning together as a unit

  • Complex UI components composed of groups of molecules and/or atoms and/or other organisms

  • Page-level objects that place components into a layout and articulate the design’s underlying content structure

  • Specific instances of templates that show what a UI looks like with real representative content in place
