Designing faster with a baseline grid

Recently, we’ve been successfully experimenting with a 6px baseline grid coupled with the traditional 960px grid system. This system has three advantages:

• first, it simplifies the design process by removing the “chance” factor (no more questions);
• second, it decreases the time spent at positioning elements;
• third, it increases the feeling of organization in our design by articulating all the graphic elements with type.
