Construction and Details
So there you have it. Lorem ipsum: the nonsense words unable to fully designing escape meaning. Of course, we’d be remiss not to include the veritable cadre of lorem ipsum knock offs featuring:
- Overall: 28″H, 70″W, 20.65″D
- Shelf Dimensions: 0.70″H, 32.5″W, 18″D
- Distance Between Adjustable Holes: 2″
- Distance Between Legs: 14″ short side; 52.5″ long side
- Sealed with clear lacquer for protection
- Under Clearance: 6″
There was that time artists at Sequence opted to hand-Sharpie the lorem ipsum passage on a line of paper bags they designed. Those with an eye for detail may have caught a tribute to the classic text in an episode of Mad Men (S6E1 around 1:18:55 for anyone that didn’t). And here is a lorem ipsum tattoo.

And that’s why a 15th century typesetter might have scrambled a passage of Cicero; he wanted people to focus on his fonts, to imagine their own content on the pages. He wanted people to see, and to get them to see he had to keep them from reading.
So when is it okay to use lorem ipsum? First, lorem ipsum works well for staging. It’s like the props in a furniture store—filler text makes it look like someone is home. The same WordPress template might eventually be home to a fitness blog, a photography website, or the online journal of a cupcake fanatic. Lorem ipsum helps them imagine.
