Motion
Guiding principles
Wazoo’s motion language has two modes:
- Purposeful — Motion that communicates meaning (state changes, transitions, feedback)
- Quirky — Decorative micro-animations that express personality and differentiate the brand
Core animations
Fade in
Default entrance for all content on dark backgrounds.
@keyframes fadeIn {
from { opacity: 0; transform: translateY(8px); }
to { opacity: 1; transform: translateY(0); }
}
Logo rotate
On hover, the W logo spins 360° with a cubic-bezier overshoot for a playful feel.
@keyframes rotate360 {
from { transform: rotate(0deg); }
to { transform: rotate(360deg); }
}
.logo-image:hover {
animation: rotate360 0.6s cubic-bezier(0.68, -0.55, 0.27, 1.55);
}
Quirky animations
| Class | Effect | Trigger |
|---|---|---|
.quirk-highlight |
Orange highlight rotates + scales | hover |
.quirk-void |
Text expands letter-spacing and blurs | hover |
.quirk-breathe |
Subtle scale + opacity pulse | auto (4s loop) |
.quirk-glitch |
RGB split + clip distortion | hover |
Reduced motion
Always respect prefers-reduced-motion. All animations collapse to instant transitions when enabled.
@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
*, *::before, *::after {
animation-duration: 0.01ms !important;
transition-duration: 0.01ms !important;
}
}
Timing tokens
| Token | Value |
|---|---|
| Fast | 0.2s |
| Normal | 0.3s |
| Slow | 0.5s–0.6s |
| Easing (standard) | ease |
| Easing (overshoot) | cubic-bezier(0.68, -0.55, 0.27, 1.55) |
