How it works
I
Compose the grid
Lock twelve columns and shared border logic before content.
II
Set the type
Massive serif display with justified columns for long reads.
III
Print to web
Ship with grain, halftone placeholders, and inverted interludes.
Benefits
Why editors switch
Vertical dividers, justified columns, and halftone placeholders keep density high without clutter. Every interactive surface inverts or lifts with a hard shadow—never a soft glow.
