Welcome to Redbrick

The Redbrick Design System is a collection of reusable components, guided by clear standards, that can be assembled together to build any number of applications. This library of design patterns, rules, and UX guidelines aims to prevent inconsistencies when shipping multiple products at scale.

The Redbrick design system is already in use across a range of sections of the liverpool.ac.uk website including most Faculty and Department sections, course pages, staff profiles and top level landing pages.

Some of the benefits include...

• Increased velocity and time to market: A component-based toolkit accessible in one place allows for a more chunked-out Agile process, speeding up releases without compromising quality.
• Increased product value: Reusable components build upon each other, which creates a consistent look, feel, and behaviour to the product. As consistency increases, so too does user efficiency.
• Increased collaboration and knowledge sharing: Because the shared design system includes approved assets and conventions, designers and developers are more autonomous without closing off into silos.
• Less time and money wasted: Because designers and developers aren't caught up in redundant questions or repetitive work, they're freed up for tasks that deliver more business value.
