This feels a lot like vector graphics. I would imagine one could automate SVG to CSS translation.

Presumably, tho it might be a little difficult. SVGs use a lot of paths, where you specify the edges of elements. Afaik you can't do that exact thing in CSS but you could probably split it up into a bunch of triangles. Idk how you'd want to do bezier curves tho

Yeah, a one to one conversion might not be possible. Although this example also approximates the image by making it two tone and using simple shapes to compose more complex ones.

It still feels as a non-trivial task tho.
