Figma UI Kit

Using with documentation

The Figma UI Kit should not be used in isolation. Our core styles and components go beyond just look-and-feel. To produce quality user experiences, read the documentation and understand the usage and behaviour of each style and component.

How to access the Figma UI Kit

There are two ways to use the NSW Design System in Figma:

Option 1: Invite-based access (recommended)

For NSW Government teams, partners, and vendors who need access to the managed version of the NSW Design System UI Kit. Using this method, components stay up-to-date with the latest release. When library updates are available, the Libraries icon on the Assets tab in the left sidebar will display a blue badge.

To request view access, email [email protected].

View access lets you copy components into your design files, perform basic inspection, and comment. Edit access is reserved for the internal NSW Design System team only.

Option 2: Offline copy

A downloadable version of the NSW Design System UI Kit, for exploration or evaluation, is available upon request. You can import the file to your own workspace and publish it as a local library. Offline copies don’t receive any updates and your design files will be out of date when we publish a new version.
