Nowadays grid systems are an established tool that is often used by print
and web designers to create well-structured, balanced designs.
More than grids, structured information
When we learn from the Swiss Style literature, it՚s very easy to embrace the
grid system as a purely visual framework. However, upon a further
examination we can see that grids are more than just the art of placing
elements; there՚s a subtle layer of semantic organization of data which,
despite not being inherent to the use of the grid, is a big part of the Swiss
Style՚s essence.
