Utilities for specifying the origin for an element's transformations.

Class	Styles
`origin-center`
`transform-origin: center;`

| | origin-top |

transform-origin: top;

| | origin-top-right |

transform-origin: top right;

| | origin-right |

transform-origin: right;

| | origin-bottom-right |

transform-origin: bottom right;

| | origin-bottom |

transform-origin: bottom;

| | origin-bottom-left |

transform-origin: bottom left;

| | origin-left |

transform-origin: left;

| | origin-top-left |

transform-origin: top left;

| | origin-(<custom-property>) |

transform-origin: var(<custom-property>);

| | origin-[<value>] |

transform-origin: <value>;

Use utilities like origin-top and origin-bottom-left to set an element's transform origin:

origin-center

origin-top-left

origin-bottom

<img class="origin-center rotate-45 ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="origin-top-left rotate-12 ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="origin-bottom -rotate-12 ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

Use the origin-[<value>] syntax to set the transform origin based on a completely custom value:

<img class="origin-[33%_75%] ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

For CSS variables, you can also use the origin-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<img class="origin-(--my-transform-origin) ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

This is just a shorthand for origin-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Prefix a transform-origin utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<img class="origin-center md:origin-top ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

Learn more about using variants in the variants documentation.
