How to create Geometric objects - 11 Trees 🌳 Pure CSS

Introduction

2 years ago, wandering through the expanses of Behance, I came across an interesting work from the studio Flöra. And in it I saw interesting geometric objects that reminded me of trees. I really liked the style of these illustrations and decided to try to implement them using CSS.

DEMO

You can also download the project from my GitHub repository. (There is also a demo on GitHub Pages).

01. Seedling

Creating this tree took the most time because of the need to create the lower oval dotted lines. Since to create such lines, I needed to create 16 hemispheres, each of which had a different size.

02. Sepal

A very simple tree. There are no complicated shapes or lines.

03. Linden

04. Pine

To create winding lines with two or more corners, it is enough just to use several blocks with rounded corners that need to be connected in the necessary sequence.

05. Palm

To create winding lines, the same method was used here as in the fourth tree.

06. Fir

To create the moon, I used a round invisible block, which had the box-shadow property set with the value 20px 20px 0 0 #000.

I used the same method in my other works with illustrations

In order to create curved lines, you just need to set the properties for rounding individual corners. For example: border-bottom-left-radius or border-bottom-right-radius.

07. Rose

08. Willow

09. Sunflower

To create such petals, you just need to use the border-radius property and set it to 50% 100px 0 80px or 100px 50% 80px 0. Depending on which way you need a slope.

10. Bell

To create winding lines, the same method was used here as in the fourth tree.

11. Poplar

THE END

Well, that's it. I just wanted to share my old work and nothing more. Thanks for attention.

Goodbye

Nice job with the CSS implementation. Also just wondering, how did you do the squirrel icon for your Github page? Love that little guy

the post pattern is just a photo of an open menu in which you can select a tree.
