Design

Tools, plugins, and Sketch files for designers.

Our primary design libraries are built in Figma. If you use other design tools, such as Adobe XD, be aware that components and styles will not translate directly. The library will no longer update automatically and the design system team won’t be able to support questions regarding other design tools. All new tools should be assessed for use at Boston Scientific.

These libraries contain styles, components, and patterns so designers don’t have to spend time recreating shared designs. These resources are meant for user experience and interface design. If you are looking for print resources, refer to Brand Standards.
