Slide Out Box Menu

A details menu with boxes that slide out in an irregular grid. The grid items get revealed individually with delays from the top right corner of the page.

Today we’d like to share a little menu with you. The idea is to reveal the boxes of a grid individually from the top right corner of the page similar to the Expanding Grid Menu we did a while back. The inspiration for this effect and for the slideshow layout comes from Adrián Somoza’s design and Zhenya Rynzhuk’s Dribbble shot. The animations are powered by TweenMax.

Attention: Note that we use modern CSS properties that might not be supported in older browsers.

For showcasing the menu, we’ve created a little slideshow. The menu opens when clicking on the + details button on the right side:
