"Brockmann is perhaps best-known as graphic designs foremost proponent of grid systems to assist in functional, objective design, which he discussed in detail in his books 'Grid System in Graphic Design' and 'The Graphic Designer and his Design Problems'. The grid system allowed Muller-Brockmann to organize his subject matter to create more effective design, to not be overwhelmed by the seeming chaos and complexity of design decisions."
"All his works were built upon a grid system, and it is interesting that even those designs that appeared free of structure were rigidly organized beneath the surface. The development of the grid was also the main subject of his teaching (he held many lectures and seminars throughout the world) and of his contributions to magazines such as 'New Graphic Design'. In many ways, Müller-Brockmann is the perfect subject to study for a representative understanding of the so-called Swiss Design movement."
