Maintainable CSS

I’m currently using Blueprint CSS to handle any design work I have to do. However, I’m starting to notice some problems with it.

The main problem is going to be maintainability in the long run. In Blueprint CSS you take advantage of the grid by adding classes to HTML elements. If you have a class on an element in a number of places and you want to remove that class, you will have to do it in every single document where you have placed it.

The answer might just be Compass. I’m going to give it a go on my next project.
