A grid done right is invisible; you feel its absence more than its presence. Set a single base unit, derive everything from it, and resist the urge to nudge things off the lattice.
One unit, everywhere
When spacing, type, and rhythm all descend from the same number, a page acquires a quiet rightness that's hard to name and easy to feel.
The grid you don't see is the one that's working.
