I know this question is about ionic framework. When i tried for a similar application which gives windows 8 look i used Gridster.js. have a look into it. If you find it helpful use it. http://gridster.net/

you can Use card Imaged from Ionic

<div class="list card">

  <div class="item item-avatar">
     <img src="avatar.jpg">
        <h2>Pretty Hate Machine</h2>
           <p>Nine Inch Nails</p>
   </div>

   <div class="item item-image">
      <img src="cover.jpg">
   </div>

   <a class="item item-icon-left assertive" href="#">
   <i class="icon ion-music-note"></i>
   Start listening
   </a>

  </div>

here is the Link Ionic Card Images

but Gridster is a pretty neat solution

You could probably build your own based off on the grid. Here's a really quick starter.

Codepen

CSS:

.tile {
  color: #fff;
  height: 150px;
  padding: 20px;
}
.tile-double {
  height: 300px;
}
.tile + .tile {
  margin-top: 10px;
  height: 140px;
}
.tile-icon {
  padding: 0;
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 60px;
  line-height: 150px;
}
.tile-title {
  position: relative;
  text-align: center;
}
.tile-title > h1 {
  font-family: 'Lato', sans-serif;
  font-weight: 300;
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
  width: 100%;
  color: #fff;
  margin: 0;
}
.tile-image {
  text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 #000;
  background-size: cover;
  background-position: bottom;
}
