Microsoft Evergreen Toolkit
This project defines a set of flexible guidelines for digital assets, built around core principles of consistency, clarity, and performance. The Evergreen design system is made up of practical building blocks that help solve real UI challenges while keeping user needs front and center.
The Evergreen toolkit was created to give Microsoft teams the confidence and tools they need to design thoughtfully and efficiently. It brings together foundational strategy, storytelling frameworks, illustration assets, visual language principles, and real-world applications to create a cohesive experience across Microsoft products.
Rather than replacing the core global brand system, Evergreen acts as a creative extension of it—offering guidance that’s adaptable without losing alignment. The result is expressive, consistent design across every touchpoint, all while staying true to Microsoft’s established visual and verbal DNA.
At its core, these guidelines help balance brand identity, usability, scalability, and clarity—reducing cognitive load and making tasks easier and more intuitive for users.
