Measurement

Measurement is obviously CRUCIAL to the design process.

Although Canada subscribes to the metric system for most measurements, we often use OTHER systems of measurement in specific industries:
 * Construction uses the Imperial system
 * ie. 1 yard = 3 feet
 * 1 foot = 12 inches
 * Printers and publishers subscribe to the [|pica system]
 * 16 points = 1 Pica
 * 6 Pica = 1 Inch

We will defer to those measurement systems as we explore Construction and Graphic Design
