It is important for a designer to use a grid for several reasons. I think one of the most important reason is to keep order. I know my mind wonders endlessly and sometimes i want to do things to do them but they may not make sense to others. A grid creates an order that is hard to mess up. Although some of those grids in the reading seemed pretty complicated i would particularly like to see how the one on page 150 in thinking with type. The benefits of a grid is in fact the order it creates. I also think it helps because in a project we as designers have a lot to create the grid is something sturdy to depend on.
Information i should probably know so i am going to write i on here:
one point = 1/72 in. or .35 millimeters
12 points = 1 pica
Question why is it in the book they sat 12/14 Mrs Evans for example pg. 37 thinking with type
Polyglot bible
When i first started looking at the bible pages i thought of when i was growing up as a young Jewish girl and looking at the the Haftorah pages which are sectioned with the passage in the middle and then commentaries and commentaries on commentaries around the edges.
