Grids.

The 4 x 6 modular grid I was working with was proving difficult to set type to, so back to the drawing board. :)

My initial 4 x 6 grid... there was little options so far as box size was concerned, and the text boxes felt too squashed. :(


My new 5x 5 grid feels much more comfortable for headings and text! I find it works really well with the baseline grid also.



I thought this 7 x 11 grid was really interesting and flexible, perhaps something I will revisit in future. Who knows. :)

I experimented with several different grid options, but in the end the 5 x 5 modular with a 14 baseline grid to match the leading was the most successful for me. Now the annoying part is adjusting all the stuff I already typed up into the new grid format.. ;)
