Case Study: CampusIQ achieves AI-ready design consistency with Southleft

CampusIQ unifies 3 component libraries into 50+ React components with Southleft

CampusIQ, an AI-powered space utilization analytics provider for universities, faced a challenge with design inconsistency after scaling its team. With three different component libraries across its products, its engineering team found that AI-generated code was inconsistent. Southleft was engaged to bridge this gap in contextual continuity between design and development.

Southleft implemented a token-first design system using shadcn/ui, creating over 50 React components powered by CSS custom properties. They integrated AI workflows with tools like Figma Console MCP and Story UI, enabling developers to generate consistent code and the product team to prototype independently. The result eliminated hours of back-and-forth, established enterprise-quality consistency, and provided a scalable foundation for all CampusIQ products.
