Review: La grille c'est la base : ) - Excellent livre, qui commence par des petits rappels comme la classification des typo, le vocabulaire typographique, les types de grilles… Et ensuite une plongée dans tout un ensemble d'exemples de mise en page classés par genre: magazines, livres, posters…. J'aurais aimé voir aussi des analyses de sites, mais c'est de la gourmandise : ). Très très bon livre.
