Seen here is the top of one of his article pages. The website of Oli Studholme is a good example of a manuscript grid. This footer of links breaks the manuscript grid and shows the column grid the site is likely designed on, but I think we can still consider the page a manuscript grid in some respect. Below these links is another footer area that serves as the running footer with basic copyright information. Not shown is a large footer in which Andy includes links to (I think?) every article on the site. At the bottom is a link to follow Andy on Twitter. The left margin contains the date of publication. In the top margin is the site navigation and logo. You can see a large block of text with margins and secondary information in the margins. They have a secondary structure that defines the location of secondary information like a running header or footer, footnotes and folios.Ĭonsider the screenshots below with the above in mind.Ībove is a page from Andy Rutledge’s Design View site showing a single article. You might think of them as single column grids. Manuscript grids have a primary structure defined by large continuous blocks of text surrounded by margins. The grid diagrams above each section will take you back to my original post on grid types. You can and should click each of the screenshots to see the live page as some of the images here have been cropped. I did my best to accommodate, though do understand that with some of the examples below the type of grid being used is more my opinion than what the designer actually built the site on. Alex reminded me in a comment that real world examples would be helpful and so here we are. One thing I failed to do in that post was provide website examples of each grid type.
