How do you handle the discrepancy between design and what is actually built?

work with the team ... and the more involved you can be ...
+1 on embracing cross-functional design reviews. I find discrepancies tend to happen when there is either a lack of or ineffective communication of the expected design. I would assess what discrepancies there are, and make time to actually sit down with the developer(s) to see what was mis/undercommunicated, to inform could have been better communicated for future reference.

  This is a tough one. My best answer is that it's not your job to build the thing that matches the design, but rather to make sure that you're building something that can be used by your target users. Visit this https://masterbundles.com/top-really-bad-websites-that-made-designers-sad/ site to check more websites with poor designs. It's easy to get caught up in the details of the design, and it's tempting to try and fit what you think will work into what you've designed.
