This is a Framer recreation of a 3D grey folder interaction made originally by Kevin. Remix the project or grab the component to use this 3D folder hover effect in your own project.

About the resource

To create the grey folder animation, I started with a folder component that has two variants: default and hover. I structured it with a front layer, a back layer, and three files in between to build the folder’s depth.

I applied 3D transform to all the layers and enabled preserve-3D so the perspective would stay consistent. In the default variant, the folder remains closed with the front layer flat, while in the hover variant, I rotated the front layer along the X-axis to make it look like the folder is opening to reveal the files.

Finally, I connected the two variants with a hover interaction so the front layer tilts open on hover and returns when the hover ends.
