A CSS framework that advocates going beyond the standard! A big thanks to the person/people that put in the effort to make this and then release it for free. I haven’t had the chance to make anything with it yet, but I like the idea of going beyond 1024px. Designing once at 1140 for 1280 and have it easily adaptable to several screens sounds really nice. Will try this out soon on an upcoming project.

The 1140 grid fits perfectly into a 1280 monitor. On smaller monitors it becomes fluid and adapts to the width of the browser. Beyond a certain point it uses media queries to serve up a mobile version, which essentially stacks all the columns on top of each other so the flow of information still makes sense. Scrap 1024! Design once at 1140 for 1280, and with very little extra work, it will adapt itself to work on just about any monitor, even mobile.
