Basic Grid

The Basic Grid is the simplest floor in the library: thin lines for every cell, heavier section lines every few cells, and a soft fade into the distance. It does not animate and does not glow. It is there to give a scene a ground and a sense of scale, the way a cutting mat or graph paper does.

How it works

The grid is drawn as an endless plane of lines that thins out with distance, so it never shows a hard edge at the horizon. Two line sets are layered: the small cells and the larger sections. By default a cell is one unit wide, every tenth line is a section line, the cell lines are a deep red and the section lines white, and the grid fades out about thirty units from its centre. It is drawn on both sides, so it still reads when the camera dips below it.

What you can change

The cell size, the section size, the thickness and colour of each line set, and the distance at which the grid fades out. That is the whole set: it is meant to stay quiet.

Use it for

Product shots that need a floor without a backdrop, architectural and layout scenes where scale matters, technical presentations and blueprint-style compositions. When you want the floor itself to move, glow or tell a story, step up to the Advanced Grid or one of the generative grids in the grid collection.
