Bauhaus Geometric

Diagonal Counterpoint

Red and blue diagonal bars sweep in opposing directions and cross at center; a pulsing yellow square node and slow-spinning dashed ring anchor the composition.

When to use it

Dark-background hero sections, art/design portfolio tiles, Bauhaus or geometric-modernism themed displays.

When not to

Light backgrounds (hardcoded dark palette). Contexts requiring readable text overlays — the crossing bars dominate the visual field.

Working with an AI agent

Every component ships agent-ready metadata. An example instruction for this one:

Change the red bar color to #ff6b00 and slow both sweep animations to 10s by editing the animation-duration on .bh06-a and .bh06-b. Theme: dark tokens live in :root, the light variant in :root[data-theme="light"]; ?theme=light or a {type:'forever:theme'} postMessage switches at runtime.

Safe to edit

  • bar colors (--bh06-red, --bh06-blue, --bh06-yellow CSS vars)
  • sweep duration (7.2s on .bh06-a/.bh06-b)
  • bar width/height (width=920, height=30/34 on rect elements)
  • ring spin speed (18s on .bh06-ring)
  • yellow node pulse scale (1.12 in bh06-pulse keyframe)
  • theme tokens (:root dark defaults + [data-theme=light] overrides)

Keep intact

  • clip-path #bh06-clip (keeps bars from overflowing)
  • IIFE wrapper with visibilitychange pause
  • prefers-reduced-motion guard in CSS and JS
  • theme hook (?theme= bootstrap + forever:theme message listener + theme tokens)

Known limitations

  • Background color hardcoded in CSS — must edit --bh06-bg to change from dark
  • No interactivity; purely passive loop with no user hooks

  • Grid Construction16 primary-colored geometric shapes scatter then snap into a 4x4 modular grid, hold, dissolve, and recompose in a new Bauhaus arrangement.
  • Orbiting ArcsConcentric red, blue, and yellow arcs counter-rotate around a breathing core; scattered dots and a tilted segmented bar orbit in abstract Bauhaus style.
  • Form TrioRed circle, blue square, and yellow triangle orbit a slow-rotating armature while each shape independently spins, pulses, or tilts on a dark field.
  • Mobile BalanceA Calder-style kinetic mobile of Bauhaus primary-colored circles, squares, and triangles hang from swaying black balance arms in slow counterpoint.
  • Dot Rhythm8x8 grid of red, blue, yellow, and white dots pulsing in diagonal travelling waves; two interfering sines modulate scale and opacity for a rhythmic beat.
  • Nested Frames14 concentric Bauhaus-palette rectangles zoom endlessly inward via seamless log-scale rebasing; a yellow square and red circle accent the core.
