Raster elements are popular again. From small squared to big chequered, everything’s in the square. Are we speaking of temporary fashion in the shop windows of the current winter* clearance sale? Nothing of the sort. We are talking about quadratic tuned web layouts.
Surprisingly many styleguides of our clients take grid systems as a basis for the next re-design of their websites. Nothing may fall out of this hip aligment, everything has its well defined position. A four, five or ten pixels wide raster seems to be the new way to go.
Corporate websites suddenly appear tidied up, contentwise elaborated and well-balanced. It’s not yet in sight how long this tide will last. Currently we are excitedly looking at the next season right in front of us – where strict and limited layouts demand highly creative solutions in order to implement cutting edge financial reports like ours.
