A Design System Agency Built on a Decade of Enterprise outcomes

We built the entire global design system for Fanatics, one of the world's largest sports commerce platforms. We consolidated the global design system for Tenable, a publicly traded enterprise cybersecurity company, across a three-year embedded partnership that spanned their public offering. We have built, audited, and scaled component libraries for product teams across fintech, healthcare technology, B2B SaaS, and enterprise software.A design system only delivers value if teams use it. Most fail not because the components are poorly designed but because the organizational infrastructure around the system was never built. We design systems and the adoption frameworks that make them stick.Whether you are building a system from scratch, consolidating fragmented component libraries across a growing product suite, or preparing a design system that will survive a scaling engineering team, you deserve a design system agency that understands the operational complexity, not just the design deliverables.

95%Satisfaction score on the redesigned prototype with legacy users.

A complex platform serving two very different buyer types — with no UX/UI on staff. Zero personas. Zero validated flows. In 3 months we established design operations, built a design system from scratch, and redesigned the merchant and admin interfaces.

The reality

Most digital products fail
not because of bad tech
‍but because of bad UX.

01 / 04
30%

Teams without a design system spend up to 30% of their design and development time recreating UI decisions that already exist elsewhere in the product.

Forrester Research
02 / 04
3 to 5

The average enterprise product has 3 to 5 separate component libraries in various states of maintenance, created independently by teams that did not have a shared system to build from.

Our Design System Agency Process

Audit First. System Second. Adoption Third.

Every design system engagement starts the same way: we assess what exists, understand how your teams actually work, and identify where inconsistency and friction are creating the most cost before proposing a single component.

01

Audit and Alignment.

We audit your existing UI, workflows, and team structure. Where is inconsistency creating rework? Where are designers and engineers solving the same problem in different ways? Where does the current system break down? We find it before we design anything.

02

Foundation Definition.

We define the core principles, design tokens, visual foundations, and component standards that will govern the system. Foundation decisions are made with engineering input before component work begins, because changing them after is expensive.

03

Component Design and Documentation.

We design reusable components with clear guidelines for usage, states, behavior, and accessibility. Every component is built against real product workflows, not theoretical use cases.

04

System Integration.

The system is structured to integrate with your existing design and development environment, whether that is Figma, Storybook, a specific frontend framework, or a combination of tools your engineering team already uses.

05

Adoption and Enablement.

We ensure the system is intuitive, discoverable, and easy for teams to use. Adoption does not happen automatically. We build the onboarding materials, governance model, and feedback process that turns a design system from a deliverable into an organizational standard.

What our clients say

Verified Clutch reviews.

“

Their ability to understand our unique business was very impressive. We have a fairly complex business model and were concerned that they wouldn't be able to understand it enough to create an effective design — but they quickly built an understanding of who we are.

“

They wanted to see our company succeed and celebrated our wins with us. We could see they were invested in the project — they didn't just want to collect their fee and move on. By the time WANDR finished, they helped us get to 500 downloads on Android.

Why Wandr?

Design System Services That Perform. Guaranteed.

01 · Seniority

Enterprise-Grade Design System Expertise

A team that has built entire global design systems for Fanatics and consolidated enterprise design systems for Tenable through a three-year embedded partnership. We understand the organizational complexity of design systems at scale, not just the design deliverables.

02 · Evidence

Research and Engineering Aligned

We involve engineering in foundation and architecture decisions before component work begins. A design system built without engineering input will not be adopted at scale. Every engagement includes explicit engineering alignment as a non-negotiable phase.

03 · Guarantee

Performance Guarantee

If your design system does not measurably reduce design-to-development friction within the first product cycle after adoption, we keep working at no additional cost until it does.

The difference

Same product. Experience
users actually understand.

Buildbox came to us with a no-code game development platform used by millions — but with friction that was costing them activation. Here's what changed.

Before Wandr — Fanatics:
  • ✕Multiple component libraries in different states across product teams
  • ✕No shared source of truth for design tokens, color, spacing, or typography
  • ✕Designers and engineers solving the same UI problems independently

After Wandr — Fanatics:
  • ✓Single global design system serving all product teams across markets
  • ✓Complete token architecture governing color, spacing, typography, and states

Who this is for

You understand that inconsistency in your product is not a visual problem. It is an operational one that compounds  with every new hire, every new feature, and every new market.

We work with Directors of Design, Heads of Product, and CTOs who understand that every designer solving a UI problem that already has a solution elsewhere in the product, every engineer rebuilding a component that exists in a different codebase, and every sprint slowed down by design-to-development misalignment is not a workflow inefficiency. It is accumulated cost that a well-built design system eliminates. Your product will keep growing. The question is whether your design system grows with it or becomes the thing that holds it back.

Design System Agency

Frequently asked.

Click any question to expand. If yours isn't here, write to us.

  1. A design system agency builds, consolidates, and scales the component libraries, design tokens, usage guidelines, and governance frameworks that allow product teams to design and build consistently at scale. The best agencies go beyond component deliverables to include the adoption infrastructure, engineering alignment, and governance models that determine whether a design system gets used or gets bypassed.
  2. A component library is a collection of reusable UI elements. A design system includes the component library plus the principles, tokens, usage guidelines, and governance framework that govern how and when those components are used. A component library answers "what do we build with." A design system answers "how and why we build it that way."
  3. Internal teams can build design systems, but they consistently underestimate the organizational complexity involved: stakeholder alignment across design and engineering, adoption infrastructure, governance models, and version management. The teams that succeed with internal builds typically have dedicated design system ownership and significant experience with the process. Engaging an agency accelerates the work, reduces the risk of wrong sequencing, and brings cross-industry pattern recognition that internal teams rarely have.
  4. A typical design system engagement runs between four and twelve weeks depending on product complexity, team size, and system maturity. Building from scratch takes longer than formalizing existing components. Consolidation projects, like Wandr's work with Tenable, run longer because they involve audit, migration planning, and multi-team alignment alongside the design work.
  5. Adoption is built into our process, not bolted on at the end. We develop onboarding materials, component discovery documentation, a governance model for handling change requests, and a feedback process that allows teams to surface problems without those problems getting lost. A design system that teams work around is not a design system. Adoption infrastructure is as important as component quality.
  6. If your design system does not measurably reduce design-to-development friction within the first product cycle after adoption, we keep working at no additional cost until it does.
  7. Look for an agency that leads with an audit and organizational alignment phase before any design work begins, involves engineering in foundation decisions, and has a clear adoption and governance delivery alongside the component library. Ask to see examples of design systems that are still in active use, not just screenshots of deliverables.
  8. Design systems eliminate redundant work at every level: designers stop recreating patterns that already exist, engineers stop rebuilding components that are in other codebases, and QA stops catching inconsistencies that a shared standard would have prevented. Companies with mature design systems ship features up to 50% faster than those without, and the compounding effect on engineering velocity grows as the product and team scale.
