Mastering Layout & Grids

LinkedIn

Fee: $305

Contact Hours: 16

Great design isn’t just about placing elements—it’s about controlling space. Understanding focal points, leading lines, and the role of negative space helps create layouts that feel polished and intentional. This course teaches the principles of effective layout, from setting margins, bleeds, and guidelines to using grids for structure and consistency. You’ll explore essential grid systems like two-column and three-column layouts, manuscript grids, and complex multi-column designs. In addition, you’ll learn how to use different types of negative space to enhance clarity, highlight key content, and create an inviting design with breathing room, smooth flow, and a clutter-free layout. Whether you’re designing for print or digital, mastering these techniques will give your work a professional edge and make your layouts more effective. By mastering these techniques, you’ll gain the skills to create layouts that are both visually engaging and highly functional.
