Atomic design isn't a CSS architecture.
AD is a convention to organize the interfaces design patterns in a hierarchic system. It uses the Atoms / Molecules / Organisms allegory.
The goal is to share a language between designers, developers, stakeholders regardless of there technical background (technical teams, creative teams, stakeholders ...etc). AD was introduced by Brad Frost
ADS invite us to create the more global, smalls, atomics parts first and using them as building blocks for higher-level entities, and repeating the process to produce pages.
We will se later how we integrate ADS to our CSS architecture, and even slightly deviate from the original definition.
