NOTE: A book about grids. Shocking, eh? This one is particularly nice if you need a serious reference on page ratios and whatnot. It’s pretty spartan, for a Niggli Press release, but it’s still handsome enough to command the kind of moral authority you’d think it would if you leave it on the edge of your desk when a client comes over for a meeting. They’ll be all like, oh shit I didn’t realize design was SCIENCE!! and you’ll get totally freaking paid. Try it!
According to Amazon, this book retails for $130.00— $92 more than what I’m asking — and ranks an understandable 911,734 in sales.
