Light Column Grid v2017-May-04
##############################

See: https://bitbucket.org/snippets/danielsokolowski/d68x/light-column-gird-system

TODO,Jun-13: possibly rather then negative margins use calc and space-between to avoid issues with horizontal scroll on small devices, see: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20626685/better-way-to-set-distance-between-flexbox-items

Example:

```
<div class="columnWrapper">
   <div class="column width-4/12">
      ...
   </div>
   <div class="column width-8/12">
      <!-- assuming `display: inline-block` for img-->
      <p>
         <img class="width-4/12" ... >Lorem lipsum</p>
      </p>
   </div>
</div>
```

/*
Make padding grow in-ward
=========================

Apply a natural box layout model to all elements, but allowing components to change, which is
required for our column (`width-*`) classes to ensure padding does not effect their total width.

If below `html` conflicts with your exisiting layout comment it out and uncomment `box-sizing: border-box` in the `.cloumn` definition. 
*/
html {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}
*, *:before, *:after {
  box-sizing: inherit;
}

* The 12 column based grid
*
* Class name leverage escaping of characters - see: https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/css-escapes, Note that these can be used without the column class
