Motion Design
How we bring clarity, empathy, and delight to bamboohr.
At BambooHR, motion design is our way of guiding users with intention, delighting them through meaningful animation, and showcasing the craft that transforms functional design into an engaging experience.
01
Guide
Motion guides users by creating visual hierarchy and focus. It leads the eye, defines relationships between elements, and communicates priority through timing and movement. The right motion ensures users always know what just happened, what’s most important, and what comes next.
02
Delight
Delight doesn’t mean surprise for the sake of surprise. Motion delights by adding moments of joy, celebration, and personality. It transforms routine interactions into experiences that feel alive and human. These moments remind users there are real people behind the product and make BambooHR feel approachable.
03
Inform
Motion informs by revealing what’s happening behind the scenes. It bridges the gap between user action and system response confirming progress, signaling change, and visualizing cause and effect.

Built In Functionality with State Machines
(No extra dev work required)
Rive’s state machines let you build animations that react to user input and logic in real time. They connect motion to interaction, making your designs truly alive and responsive without extra developer work.
Blend Data with Animation
Rive’s data binding connects animations to live variables in your app, letting them update automatically as data changes. It transforms motion from static visuals into dynamic, context-aware experiences that reflect real user or system states.

Lightweight, Performance-Optimized Runtime
