Bauhaus Cube Navigator

A large drag-rotatable CSS 3D cube where each of the six genuine faces (built with translateZ + rotateX/Y) is a bold Bauhaus color block presenting a service category — Brand, Web, Motion, Space, Type, Print. Snap-to-face buttons below give precise navigation, an auto-rotate toggle keeps the cube turning slowly when idle, and both mouse and touch dragging let users orbit the cube freely. Bebas Neue + Space Grotesk. Best for product configurators, portfolio anchor sections, agency service navigators, interactive menus.
