Grid Systems in Graphic Design

Grid systems in graphic design: A visual communication manual for graphic designers, typographers and three dimensional designers

A grid system is a rigid framework used by graphic designers to organize information on a page in a meaningful and consistent way. It helps create well-structured and balanced designs for print and web. Swiss graphic designers, inspired by typographical literature, developed a coherent system for page layout, with Müller-Brockmann playing a key role in spreading grid knowledge worldwide.

This volume provides guidelines and rules for using grid systems with 8 to 32 grid fields, suitable for various projects, including three-dimensional grids. Users will find precise instructions and conceptual examples for implementing the grid systems.
