26 Deceptive Graphic Designs

What actually is an illusion? I’m sure you’ve spent a decent amount of time staring at an optical illusion at some point. Dictionary.com defines illusion as “something that deceives by producing a false or misleading impression of reality.”

Illusions aside, some imagery can just be straight trippy; not intending to deceive the senses but rather simply play with the mind and expand the horizons.

I watched Doctor Strange yesterday. If you’ve seen the movie you’ll understand why it inspired me to put together this collection of deceptive graphic design projects for your inspiration. Enjoy!
