Inspired by Josef Müller-Brockmann’s work, Stéphane Curzi endeavoured to implement a css framework system based on type baseline, where every major page element would align correctly.
Creating that shouldn’t have been a cakewalk and sure there are some big limitations (the biggest one is that Baseline’s css works fully only on latest generation browsers): nonetheless, we [...]

While I was surfing, I’ve been positively struck by the way “We are the fiction” website re-creates the book’s cover.
