Design principles
Foundational principles that guide every design decision at Tendoo.
Design principles
Our design principles serve as the foundation for how we create consistent, intuitive, and meaningful user experiences across all Tendoo products.
They guide decisions, inspire collaboration, and ensure that every interface we design aligns with our values, users' needs, and business goals.
1. Consistency creates trust
Build familiar experiences by using shared components, tokens, and patterns. Consistency reduces cognitive load and builds user confidence.
2. Clarity over cleverness
Prioritize clear communication. Interfaces should be simple, direct, and easy to understand — avoiding unnecessary complexity.
3. Designed for everyone
Accessibility is not optional. We strive to make every experience usable by all people, regardless of ability or context.
4. Responsive by default
Design with flexibility in mind. Every component and pattern should work across screen sizes and devices.
5. Collaboration-First
Design is a team sport. We create with cross-functional collaboration in mind — bridging the gap between design, engineering, and product.
