Nord and its hybrid model

What is the Nord?

Nordhealth is a medical company that aims to redefine digital healthcare. It uses the hybrid model of contribution where the central design system team is responsible for the overall direction. This hybrid model helps the design team keep the system accurate and useful.



How it works

When a designer wants to introduce a change in the design system (whether it’s a new design token, component, or pattern), they follow the change introduction process defined by the design system owners. The model is primarily focused on medium and heavy contributions (creating a brand new component or tool) but can also be used for light contributions that can affect multiple teams (a small design tweak to an existing component or style that is used in many parts of the system).
