GRID : is basically a pattern of horizontal and vertical lines spaced out at regular intervals, forming squares or rectangles . depending on what sort of grid we make the sizes and shapes vaires accordingly.Depending on what size and shape the following are part of forming a grid , these are : gutter , margin , column , row , flow line , module and spatial zone.

A hierarchy is an arrangement of items (objects, names, values, categories, etc.) in which the items are represented as being "above," "below," or "at the same level as" one another. Abstractly, a hierarchy can be arranged as the top level , then middle level and lower level.

To create a hierarchy you header which is the main and top most part of the page . then comes the sub heading which talks more about the heading and then lastly the body where all the details are placed.There are several grid variations, these are Golden Ratio , Rule of third , Columns and Baseline grid.

Golden ratio is mostly used when web designing , rule of third is used for basic making of photos, columns separates vertical paragraphs and base line grid separates horizontal lines from each other.

Therefore , using these rules and variations we could come up with different layouts.
