About Nebula UI
Building a scalable design
system in Figma
Nebula UI is a flexible, scalable, and easy-to-use design system built in Figma to simplify digital product design. It eliminates inconsistencies, speeds up the design process, and ensures a cohesive user experience across projects.
With predefined styles, local variables, and reusable components, Nebula UI makes UI creation effortless—whether you’re building a small app or a large-scale product. Plus, its clear documentation and beginner-friendly structure mean that even new designers can jump in without confusion.
Designed for adaptability, efficiency, and consistency, Nebula UI takes the guess work out of UI design, letting designers focus on creating great experiences.
Brief
Problem
Statement
Designing user interfaces from scratch can be time-consuming, inconsistent, and frustrating—especially when scaling across multiple projects. Nebula UI solves this by providing a structured, adaptable design system that ensures consistency, efficiency, and ease of use for designers at any level. Here’s what you get:
Starting with the smallest elements
Atoms in
Nebula UI
Nebula UI follows Atomic Design principles, meaning everything starts with the smallest elements—atoms—which form the foundation of all UI components.
Each atom in Nebula UI is created using Figma variables, making customisation effortless and ensuring scalability across projects.
When atoms join forces
Molecules
Atoms are great on their own, but when they team up, magic happens. Enter Molecules—small, reusable UI components that bring structure, functionality, and a whole lot of style to your designs.
These are the power duos & trios of Nebula UI, designed to be plug-and-play so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel every time.
Wrapping it up
Why Nebula UI?
Nebula UI isn’t just a design system—it’s a faster, smarter, and more structured way to build interfaces. With its atomic design foundation, scalable components, and built-in flexibility, it takes the guesswork out of UI design.
Whether you're working on a small app or a large-scale product, Nebula UI keeps things consistent, customisable, and easy to use—so you can spend less time fixing inconsistencies and more time creating great experiences.
More than just components
The Learning Curve
Building Nebula UI wasn’t just about putting together a set of components—it was a deep dive into design systems, structure, and scalability. What started as an experiment turned into a well-thought-out system that balances consistency, flexibility, and ease of use.
