an illusionary tale

I love the idea of tricking the eye in design. It can be tongue in cheek or very sophisticated trompe-l'oeil, which leaves you wondering, 'how the heck did they do that?' I love breaking the rules in making and here are some of my favourite examples of illusion-using art and design:
L to R, First Row: 1.Viktor and Rolf S/S 2010 2. Big City Sneakers
Second Row: 1. Honor S/S 2012 2. Louis Ghost Chair by Philippe Starck for Kartell
Third Row: 1. huit carres by Felice Varini 2006 2. Prada F/W 2011
Fourth Row: 1. Reem Acra Resort 2013 2. Bias of Thought by John Leung of ClarkeHopkinsClarke Architects
Last Row: 1.  Christian Louboutin Unbout Illusion pumps 2. Stella McCartney dresses A/W 2011
