It's easy to extend the basic grid styles into a custom responsive layout by using CSS media queries to adjust the layout and design across various screen width breakpoints.
This example is a typical news feature block that changes its layout across screen widths and illustrates how to change the grid ratios and overall layout with simple CSS. It starts as a simple set of stacked stories on phones, that goes to a layout with the lead story full width stacked over a 50/50 layout of the secondary stories. At wider widths, these secondary stories float next to the lead story in a 50/25/25 layout. When the screen gets very wide, the font size is bumped up to keep line lengths short.
