Web Design

Building your web on the 960 grid

Stephen Bau has created a terrific collection of commonly used web elements built on Nathan Smith's 960 pixel grid system. As he explains it, "I have been looking for a means of rapidly developing interactive prototypes for our site designs at Domain7. So I have been building a library of commonly used HTML elements, combining these with CSS for typography and layout, and adding some basic effects available from popular JavaScript libraries."

Even if you don't use the code, the page itself will get you thinking about elements you might want to include in your design.

If you are unfamiliar with the 960 Grid system, I have also included a link below.
