Grid-based webdesign is on the rise again. I remember doing some grid HTML for a project back in 2004 while working for workmatrix besides school. Actually, designhotels.com is still around and the site didn’t change too much. Since I lack all theoretical education and background, the beauty and perceived usability of stringent grids is a very subjective finding for me. This makes me dig them and they are my approach of choice for a lot of projects.

I originally intented to compile a list of useful ressources on grids, yet on Vandelaydesign.com you can find an already exhaustive list. My personal favorite is the 960 Grid System, which is very nice for rapid prototyping and hitting the ground running.
