Visual consistency forms the foundation of professional digital products. Like a well-designed building, every element follows specific patterns and rules. Inconsistencies in visual design often signal deeper problems with design systems and component usage.

A thorough visual consistency check examines several key areas:

  • Component usage: How consistently UI elements appear across features
  • Spacing patterns: Alignment, margins, and padding across screens
  • Visual hierarchy: Size relationships between headings, text, and elements
  • Interactive states: Consistency of hover, active, and disabled states
  • Grid application: Layout consistency across different views
  • Design tokens: Proper use of defined colors, shadows, and radius values
