GRIDS

Since grids consist of intersecting lines, all remarks made about lines also apply to grids. Although a line can have any length, it cannot be of any width. However,  whether a grid is composed of fine lines or wide bands, it is always perceived as a grid. When two perpendicular lines intersect, they form a cross, which represents the smallest unit of a grid… The point, the heart of the cross, which we call a square... Aurélie Nemours | Symmetria – Editions Fanal, 1982. However, when two broken lines intersect at their gap, a virtual point is created, and this point is rather round in shape.
