A few years ago I designed the original logo for @DesignTokens. Recently they asked me to refresh it: simpler, more versatile, and blue (the original color of links). The new logo builds on the old one, keeping the connected core while refining it for any size or use.

Since 2000, hospital prices have soared by over 250% – 3x the rate of inflation. Why? Mergers and consolidation give them more power to set prices. It’s time to hold hospitals accountable for rising health care costs. Learn more.

We’ve been quiet over the past few months, but we’re still active! In fact, breakthroughs were made in our latest spec meetings and we can’t wait to share more... Massive thanks to the community for their understanding, these things take time 🙏🏻
@jimmy_morris Hey Jimmy – we’re still active ❤️ Our focus is on native modes and theming support, a *big* undertaking 😓 (see https://t.co/KYFVUNEcaW) Recently, @TokensStudio and Cobalt joined our spec meetings and are already bringing amazing fresh ideas ✨ More on this very soon!

I envision the same world but an even broader one. A design API that would power tokens and assets everywhere within an org design system. Tokens and assets should navigate freely between teams and tools.
Why is this exciting? Personally, I can see a world where we manage cross functional variables with Figma + JSON, feeding them into tools where our XFN teams work JSON ↔️ Figma ↪️ Photoshop for brand work ↪️ InDesign for print work ↪️ After Effects for video work

The DTCG’s goal is to provide standards upon which products and design tools can rely for sharing stylistic pieces of a design system at scale.
