Love the Design of this site, how do I even begin to replicate it?

As Im sure most people on this site do, I spend time browsing other websites, when I like portions of or entire sites I try to replicate them.

I really like the style of this site http://italic-studio.com/ but I dont even know where to begin replication (aside from a firm grasp on js). Does this style of website have a specific name? more specifically does the scrolling section have a name?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

This technique can be accomplished by using a script similar to http://scrollrevealjs.org/

I guess it is similar to "parralax" scrolling sites.

I believe the scrolling is called "Parallax Scrolling".

Hello there,

I was wondering, is there any course here on Treehouse that could teach me to build these type of websites?

Thanks for sharing

An understanding of JS and CSS would be a good start then research parallax, pick apart other plugins on github and just explore and break things ;)
