gridconcept
Gridconcept is a general term describing the practice of organizing space, data, and interfaces using a grid structure. It is used across disciplines such as user interface design, graphic design, urban planning, cartography, and scientific computing. The core idea is to impose a regular lattice of horizontal and vertical lines to guide placement, spacing, and alignment, producing visual harmony, consistency, and scalability.
In design, gridconcept supports modular and responsive layouts by defining a grid size that can adapt to
Common grid types include fixed grids with constant cell size, adaptive or fluid grids that resize with
