I place  { on the line following and then indent code following an Indian
it again for any other functions such as if / while / case ... .
The end result is code who's structure leaps out and grabs you. I started
off being somewhat surprised that this wasn't standard practice come to
accept that most people prefer density and obfuscation.
Apart from taking more space I can see no disadvantages and this approach
and for me the gains are substantial.

I spent many decades working mainly in assembler and
 actually find it generally easier to see what's going on than in most
higher level languages.
