# How I design with CSS grid

**[Chen Hui Jing](https://daily.dev/sources/chenhuijing)** · 8 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A practical walkthrough of designing layouts with CSS Grid, from initial concept to implementation. Covers the author's six-step process: examining design elements, sketching grids on paper, structuring flexible and fixed tracks, and iteratively adjusting viewport-based layouts. Demonstrates the approach by recreating a Tycho artist profile design, showing how Grid's visual syntax and properties like grid-template-areas make layout planning intuitive. Emphasizes starting with semantic markup, progressive enhancement with @supports, and using media queries to handle viewport unit breakpoints across different screen orientations.
