⧉ Classic Layout Systems

A library of layout systems and grids to find balance through classic form and proportions.

"No matter how much technology develops, certain eternal principles can still be applied to organize and present information." The fact that we live in the digital age with new media does not mean that classical concepts of balance and harmony are any less important." -- The Layout Book

"Though largely forgotten today, methods and rules upon which it is impossible to improve have been developed for centuries." -- Jan Tschichold

"Columns are boring. Build with relationships." 😄 -- Nathan Ford
