Obelisco: design system governance for a city-scale ecosystem

I led the strategy, governance, and cultural adoption of a centralized design system across the Government of Buenos Aires, helping standardize more than 50 digital touchpoints.

My role

Strategy, governance, adoption

I worked across design, development, and operational leadership to build a system that teams could actually adopt. That meant setting standards, aligning stakeholders, and turning the design system into a practical operating model.

  • Defined governance criteria for components, patterns, and contribution flows.
  • Aligned multidisciplinary teams around reusable standards and accessibility expectations.
  • Supported cultural adoption so the system became part of day-to-day delivery, not just documentation.

Outcomes

Consistency, accessibility, and better collaboration

Operational clarity

Shared rules reduced duplicated work and made cross-team collaboration easier.

Accessible delivery

WCAG-aligned decisions became part of the system instead of being added at the end.

Scalable quality

Teams could deliver faster without losing service consistency across touchpoints.
