Analysis of the Design Methodology "Grid System" with Internationalism Characteristic
Abstract
The "Grid System" is a methodology used in typography that came into being under internationalism after world war II. This methodology takes control of the image’s aspects with the grid lines that equally divides and distributes the space, which resulted in the visual balance and a sense of coordination. As a design method, it represents how mathematical subjects interact with art. And even after decades of evolution, it still acts as a crucial part of art & design and deeply influenced many designers and their works. This paper starts with the history of the "Gird System" method while introducing its concept and following its major developments and practices, then finishing up with an analysis of its main character and methodology for some future design.References
