The Grid System
[ insert stuff about grid here]


I have chosen to look into magazine layouts using a nice grid which if ind inspiring. I have found these so far and i will be breaking them down to work out the layout and then be able to re create the style you see.



The above posts are really nice to look at and i feel it uses the grid system really well but doesn't compromise the design.
