Meet Chameleon
Chameleon is Reckitt’s multi-brand design system for created digital experiences. It’s purpose to help Reckitt’s brand move quickly and create consistent, quality digital products. We achieve this by simplifying common design decisions and testing patterns vigorously to ensure you’re getting the best pattern or component for the job.
Chameleon is a living design system which means it will grow and evolve with Reckitt to continually serve Reckitt’s brands.

Design tokens

Components
Components are reusable code blocks that take the form of React components. They use Chameleon’s tokens and design foundations to extend basic HTML elements. These custom markup elements represent specific portions of the user interface.
Component props & variations
Many components come in different configurations which can be controlled by pros or are separate variations of their own. These variations are usually layout and styling changes with the html structure and functionality remaining consistent.
Patterns
Patterns are reusable elements have basis in usability and accessibility best practices. They come come in the form of components with recommended configurations (like Product Cards) or more behaviour, flow, and usability guidance.
