SXSW Day 2: Grids are Good

sxsw, web — markmorga on March 19, 2007 at 8:40 pm

This panel was on using the modern design technique of grid layout to improve web site design. This one was good, but would have benefitted from a longer session - 30 minutes was rushed. My notes:

  • subtraction.com
  • markboulton.co.uk
  • 2 dots imply a design
  • columns turn to grid
  • rationalism < decore + logic, reason
  • standardization
  • crate & barrel’s web site is a good example
  • commentisfree.guardian.co.uk
  • yeeaahh.subtraction.com
  • 3 or 4 columns in multiples of the base column width - 12 total is ideal
