Sky

Sky is Europe’s leading media and entertainment company. I worked as a designer in the product design team for Sky News and Sky Sports. One of the main projects I worked on was working with engineering to create a design system to unify and consolidate the components used across the two channels.

Team: Mark Groak (Front End Developer), Suzannah James (Designer)

Problem: After running an audit across Sky News and Sky Sports Web, it was noted that many inconsistencies had developed. For example, there were many superfluous styles being used in the codebase after the evolution of the brands over many years.

Solution: We created a core styleguide that consisted of code snippets and components to be used by both designers and engineers. The guide acted as a single source of truth which in turn, helped improve consistency, maintainability and reusability.
