Background with a slanted angle and soft, curved edges

I am currently working on creating a unique background design for my divs. I envision a rectangle with rounded corners, but with the right corner positioned lower than the left one. What is important is that the height difference between the two corners remains consistent, regardless of the overall height of the background.

Something similar to this concept:

Considering different options, I am uncertain whether utilizing a full svg or using clip-path in my css would be more effective.

My attempt at manually creating an svg did not yield precise results.

  <svg width="500" height="200">
    <defs>
      <mask id="roundCorner">
        <rect width="100%" height="100%" fill="white"/>

        //left corner
        <rect width="50" height="50" fill="black"/>
        <circle r="50" cx="50" cy="50" fill="white"/>
        
        //right corner
        <rect x='450' y="25" width="50" height="50" fill="black"/>
        <circle r="50" cx="450" cy="76" fill="white"/>

        //line
        <path d="M50 0 L500 30 L500 0 Z" fill='black'  />
      </mask>
    </defs>
    <rect x="0" y="0" width="100%" height="100%" fill="lime" mask="url(#roundCorner)"/>
  </svg>

Therefore, I am seeking advice on how best to achieve a clean and visually appealing background design efficiently.

Answer №1

To start, you must have the shape in SVG format like the example below.

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px" viewBox="0 0 500 220">
<path fill="#4F92C2" d="M449.8,220H50c-27.6,0-50-22.4-50-50V51.5C0,23.1,23.1,0,51.5,0l403.2,44.1c25.8,2.8,45.3,24.6,45.3,50.5v75.2  C500,197.5,477.5,220,449.8,220z"/>
</svg>

Next, you will need an online SVG to CSS clip path converter available here. This tool provides coordinate points to help define which parts of the shape remain unchanged when resizing the element's width or height.

For example, based on your query, the right corner should be lower than the left one if the height increases. The coordinates for the top right are marked in gold color in the screenshot below,

  • Set x-axis values to "right" so that portion remains unchanged even when width is increased.
  • Set y-axis values to "top" to keep that portion at the top as the height changes.

Click https://i.sstatic.net/iK9hr.png to view the image with the remaining coordinate values specified.

The other coordinates are categorized as follows:

Black Marked - Bottom Right

  • x-axis set to "right"
  • y-axis set to "bottom"

Indigo Marked - Bottom Left

  • x-axis set to "left"
  • y-axis set to "bottom"

Green Marked - Top Left

  • x-axis set to "left"
  • y-axis set to "top"

Once you adjust all the coordinates according to your requirements, you'll get a code snippet like the one below. Copy the updated code and click the Get Code button.

.tilted_background_resize
{
  resize: both;
  overflow: auto;
  width: 500px;
  height: 220px;
}
.tilted_background 
{   
  
  width:100%;
  height: 100%;
  clip-path: polygon(calc(100% - 50.2px) calc(100% - 0px), 50px calc(100% - 0px), ...); 
  background-color: #4F92C2;
}
<div class="tilted_background_resize">
  <div class="tilted_background"></div>
</div>
