Narratively | 50 Best Websites 2013.

Here's how you make it: A 'cube' <div>, with 6 nested <div>'s representing the six faces of the cube. Each face has an id so that we can target those individually. The dimensions of the faces will be 200px by 200px, and to let each face start from the same point, we're setting 'position' to 'absolute': To be able to see the 3D effect better we're going to give each face a different color: Now we have this in place, we can start applying the 3D transforms.
