Jina shows you how to craft a grid-based design that doesn’t look all boxy and boring. Because straight lines are boring. Ask anyone. Especially the readers of JeffCroft.com! They obviously hate straight lines!
But seriously — there is a misconception amongst web designers that grid-based layout means boxiness. It doesn’t. Jina’s example is full of swooshy, curvy goodness, but still maintains the underlying grid, for a best-of-both-worlds result.
Grids are there to unify your design and tie everything together. They’re not (necessarily) there to be seen. You don’t have to wear your grid on your sleeve like myself or Khoi Vinh in order to get the benefits of using one.
