For more than forty years, Grid Systems has been a practical handbook for designers in training or teaching, providing a simple, step-by-step introduction to the function and application of grids in two- and three-dimensional applications. It contains precise instructions for the use of all common grid systems (8 to 32 grid fields), which can be applied to a wide variety of projects.

Grids are a working tool that allows designers to conceive, organize, and design visual solutions more reliably and quickly — from business cards to exhibition stands. Josef Müller-Brockmann has documented and explained in detail, step by step, all the essential points that must be considered when designing a grid, with numerous application examples.
