Recreating Shapes Of Text
For some time now I've been building a Pinterest board full of CSS shapes examples. I hoped that people would reference it, get inspired, and would build more creative layouts using CSS shapes. The response to the collection was amazing but I haven't really seen any new examples yet. Maybe people are building super creative layouts and I just don't know about them? I don't know.
So! I've decided to set a new goal for myself. I'm going to work through the collection and recreate layouts & designs that I've pinned. Bringing them to life on the web.
The Goal
- Use HTML and CSS to turn pins into responsive, intrinsic web pages.
- Add animations when possible.
- Recreate 1 design a week until I get tired of doing it.
My hope is that by doing this I will not only learn more, but inspire myself to create new creative layouts. I also hope that it will inspire others and show just how powerful and amazing CSS is. I think just about every example in that collection can be translated to the web and maybe become something more.
I'll store all recreations in a collection here.
The Pinterest board is fairly large though and I needed a place to start. So I tweeted for help.
Thankfully I got a couple of suggestions!
So it looks like I'm going to start with these two! If there are any others that stand out to you let me know!
