When done right, the scaffolding of grids can remove the guess work from many aspects of your process. In the design world, there's a common joke that you can tell how long someone has been a designer by the color of the spine of their Müller-Brockmann copy.īy carefully constructing a grid that's suitable to your content, you can define structure, hierarchy, and rhythm in your design. It's the first text to formalize many of these concepts into such concise words, and it's probably one of the most important tomes on the topic. The book was fascinating to me because it helped codify the many ways a grid could provide structure and consistency, improve readability, and create emphasis and hierarchy in design.
As an aspiring designer, one of the first proper books I purchased was Josef Müller-Brockmann's Grid Systems in Graphic Design.
