Join us for an interactive co-creation session focused on performing a design system inventory audit of Pinterest’s Gestalt Design System directly on pinterest.com. This session offers a unique opportunity to learn from Design System Inspectors—you’ll get an inside look at how experts perform inventories, identify inconsistencies, and discuss effective strategies for resolving them.

Work alongside experts to explore component families, evaluate design system adoption, and actively engage in a structured, hands-on critique session. It’s a collaborative experience with live voting, Q&A, and a fun atmosphere designed to encourage shared insights and learning!

Plus, we’ll compile our findings as a resource to share with the Pinterest team, should they find our feedback helpful for their ongoing work.
