Leonardo Betti

Product Designer

I'm a Product Designer at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew working within the Digital team. I maintain and grow the Kew Design System (KDS) alongside the institution's wider digital products.

My work covers UX research, UI design, design systems, and prototyping, and extends into web frontend implementation: building applications with established, modern tools that support rapid iteration.

After hours I maintain Pelta CBR, which is a lightweight comic book reader for the Linux desktop. I am also working on Acara UI, a React component library focused on accessibility, fluid typography and motion design.
