Grid Systems in Graphic Design (1996)
At first I didn’t see it. The hidden pattern.
The time I spent recreating this guide as a reference for paper sizes and a means of pixel-pushing therapy, made me see the pattern.
Only through practice, was I able to decode the order set by the author.
There are still mysteries I haven't solved yet. Why is C3 not centred horizontally matching with C5,C7,C8 & C1?
What amazes me is the lack of understanding that a measuring device is another layer between what you see and want to measure. Sure it can be insightful to measure things and understand what they are but the more complex that gets, you're adding more layers to it, essentially widening the gap between you and the thing in question

Love these dynamic text bubbles. Very similar in concept to some experimental typeface (Can’t recall but it’s here in Sublime)

I’m having trouble understanding if we’re “forcing” a middle tier. If we are, then that doesn’t feel right.

Such a cool way to visualise the app coding in real time.
Shows progress, feels like it’s real thought it’s so fast.
I completely trust what it’s doing. (Also helps with all the user testimonials and marketing no doubt).
