Scroll Animations for Image Grids

Some ideas for scroll animations for image grids powered by Locomotive Scroll.

The other day I looked at the beautiful website of Elias & Valentin and fell in love with that nice tilted image grid that animates on scroll. The look and feel of a grid like that is super fashionable right now so I wanted to explore this and other layout variations I stumbled upon.

For the scroll animations I used Locomotive Scroll which is a really fantastic library when it comes to smooth scrolling and on-scroll animations.

The tilted grid from Elias & Valentin allows for a fun play with the directions of the animation.
Another interesting layout to play with is a 3D grid.
One line “grids” can simply be animated horizontally.

Check out the GitHub repo of Locomotive Scroll to see how simple it is to use the library.

I really hope you find this set interesting and useful 🙂
