Prompt

A designer proposes using arbitrary spacing token values such as 7px, 13px, 19px, and 23px in our token system. State the standard base grid increment recommended for consistent spacing scales and convert spacing step 4 (16px) to rem units.

Design System Philosophy

What is a Design System?

A design system is more than a component library—it's a collection of:

Design Tokens: Foundational design decisions (colors, spacing, typography)
Components: Reusable UI building blocks
Patterns: Common UX solutions and compositions
Guidelines: Rules, principles, and best practices
Documentation: How to use everything effectively

Core Principles

1. Consistency Over Creativity

Predictable patterns reduce cognitive load
Users learn once, apply everywhere
Designers and developers speak the same language
