Patterns

Combining components

Our patterns are pre-assembled components to solve common interface problems at the USPTO. These items are used throughout good interfaces, and should remain consistent from one experience to the next.

UX design patterns help designers and developers create workable solutions to common interface problems. Our UX patterns will incorporate design best practices for the entirety of functionality.
