Designing furniture using the CSS grid (2023)

Yep, when I was developing this I played with some of these non-intended use cases, even though they wouldn't make sense in reality. Technically, what you did was overlay one module on top of another, with the illusion of there being an L-shaped door.

And it would look very weird, but I suspect it may be possible to assemble the cabinets with these odd shaped doors or drawers...

Unfortunately the illusion breaks if you try to make the L go in the other direction:

  cabinet 200cm x 92cm top 3cm bottom 15cm scale 5
       50cm     *        *        20cm
  *   drawer   door     door     drawer
  *   drawer   ^        ^        drawer
  *   ^        >        ^        drawer
  *   >        drawer   drawer   <

(Also to GP: on here the indentation triggers code blocks where * won't italic, so no need to escape them)
