KC Design System — Sketch / Sketch

Rough it out.
One system, every component.

The sketch style redraws the system freehand in design-system-sketch.css: handwriting type, wobble borders, sticky-note labels and marker highlights, everything a degree or two off square. Same components, same markup — the notebook the classic skin was ruled up from.

Project card

A compact case study (.ds-project): a scannable face — role pill, name, outcome headline, key stack — over a structured <details> deep-dive. Role is colour-coded so the filter row doubles as a legend: Architect ink, Lead accent, Developer accent outline, R&D violet. R&D cards can carry a “read the series” link to the matching blog tag.

Document Generator

Built a centralised document-generation platform on Azure, validating policy data with InRule across products.

C# .NET Core 6 Azure Functions Terraform
Read the case study
Context
Multiple products each needed to generate documents from policy information, with no shared way to validate that data.
What I did
Spearheaded a new microservice and stood up the Azure environment with Terraform, centralising InRule validation.
Outcome
One service now serves document generation across products, with infrastructure reproducible from code.

Headings, quotes & leads

The panel openers of the homepage deck: the accent-block heading, the 4px ink bar quote and the periwinkle-tinted lead paragraph that introduces a panel. Plus the stacked display heading — a solid line over hollow outline letters (.ds-text-outline) fronted by a thin title rule (.ds-title-rule) — for hero-scale statements. The stroke rides on --ds-outline-ink, so dark surfaces flip it to light automatically.

Feature cards & stats

.ds-feature: a black circle scales from the corner to fill the card on hover, flipping the content white (origin: service-card-wrap). .ds-stat-row numbers count up when scrolled into view via data-count.

Education & timeline

.ds-edu draws its border in from the centre on hover, the title underline growing with it (origin: eduction-card). .ds-timeline is the employment rail.

Deck chrome

The homepage deck's identity pieces: the floating panel card, the rotated title rail, the “01 / 03” slide number and the pulsing indication arrow. The chrome only engages under ds-deck-on, so this demo is a static miniature rebuilt from the same tokens.
The deck in miniature: the floating panel card on the grey stage, the rotated title rail down the left edge, the “01 / 03” slide number and the pulsing indication arrow. On the homepage these are .ds-panel__card, .ds-panel__title, .ds-slidenum and .ds-indicator, styled only while the deck is engaged — this is a token-faithful approximation, not the live component.
Introduction

Hello! My name is…

Each panel of the homepage is one of these cards: content centred in a scrollable body, chrome pinned to the card's edges.
