Use Your Illusion, Part One

Optical illusions aren’t just a visual parlor trick, they can serve a purpose in design, as well. DLB presents a tour of perspective illusions for your viewing pleasure.

A while back, we pitched an idea for a logo that was an optical illusion—the kind that looks like one thing or another depending on how you look at it. Things didn’t pan out, but due to our rigorous research for the project, we’ve developed quite a collection of good optical illusions.

I find such images appealing; lots of people do. I think the brain likes to be teased a bit. It’s fun.

For today’s post, I’m going to share some images of designs that make use of perspective-based illusions. These are interesting because they are spatial: a viewer stands in a particular spot and visual cues are exploited to form a 2D image.
