Context
With the rise
of AI-assisted coding, interfaces are being generated
faster than ever. However, most AI outputs focus on getting something on screen, not on
maintaining a coherent design system. DressCode Control Center was built as a live playground to
reconnect rapid generation with real design system thinking that both designers and engineers
can trust.
Problem
AI-generated UIs often look acceptable at first glance but
quickly fall apart. Colors are inconsistent, contrast breaks in dark mode, components do not
share the same logic, and accessibility is an afterthought. This creates a growing gap where
speed increases, but design consistency and system integrity degrade.
Approach
I designed
DressCode Control Center as a real-time, system-driven
environment. A single color decision propagates through CSS variables, tone scales, and semantic
tokens, updating components instantly across light and dark modes. Built-in contrast checks and
accessibility patterns enforce consistency, while JSON token export ensures AI-generated or
human-built UIs can align with a shared, production-ready design system.
