Designing With Grid
All of the design decisions you make, large and small, breathe life and character into your work. They influence the message and purpose of the product for which you are designing. A lot of websites look the same, with distinct touches made to a familiar template we’ve seen before. With CSS Grid at our fingertips, designers now have an opportunity to play with ideas that were once impossible to consider for the web.
In this seminar, designer Jen Simmons will look at the exciting possibilities that CSS Grid offers. She’ll explore patterns in classic graphic design, taking inspiration from the Swiss Modernists and Japanese designers. And she’ll show us how we can apply these ideas to our CSS Grid design patterns.
