I went to the library and chose some of the magazines that they have there which I thought had nice layouts. I then laid these magazines out and used tracing paper to try and establish what the grid system that had been used looked like.
Some of the pages were really easy to figure out and I had some which looked as if they used a huge amount of columns. I think these pages must have been designed using a modular grid because often components of the page sat on the same horizontal line also.
This exercise helped me to understand grid systems in more depth and has inspired me in ways that I can utilise the grid.
