A layout with a menu and background image grid that animates to an inner content page. The idea is to show a menu with a nice background grid of images and when choosing to explore a project, an animation happens where the images of the background grid fly away and an inner page shows.

Draggable Menu with Image Grid Previews
A draggable inline menu with a scattered thumbnail preview of an image grid.After our little draggable image strip experiment, we wanted to explore using the dragging functionality on a menu. The idea is to show a large inline menu with some scattered thumbnails. The menu can be dragged and while doing so, the thumbnails get moved with an animation. Each menu item also changes the letters to show an outlined version. When clicking on the “explore” link under a menu item, the thumbnails move and enlarge to form a grid.

Draggable Image Strip with TweenMax
A draggable image strip layout with a content preview powered by Draggabilly and TweenMax.. The idea is to show a strip of differently sized images that can be dragged. When clicking and holding to drag, a title element appears and the images get scaled. This separates the images and gives the whole thing an interesting look. When a number gets clicked, the same separation happens and then the images fly up. Another larger version of the images slides in from the bottom.
Animated Image Columns with TweenMax
An experimental web layout where several image columns get animated out when a menu item is clicked.The idea is based on the current trend of a grid layout where the columns are animated. In our demo, we animate a decorative image grid and make the columns move away in an alternating way, revealing some content underneath. We use a playful hover effect for the menu items and mimic the animating when they fly away. We also added some slight mouse move interaction for the columns.
Grid Reveal Effects with Anime.js
Some experiments with the new staggering system of Anime.js where we try different effects for hiding and showing thumbnails in an image grid.
Recently, a new version of anime.js was released. One of the great new features is its staggering system that makes complex follow through and overlapping animations really simple. We wanted to give it a try and experiment with this new feature on an image grid with many thumbnails.
