Does this bedroom look white and gold or black and blue to you? Pssst, it's white and gold.
The white and gold/black and blue dress has been spreading like wildfire, and anyone with Internet access has probably heard about it. The world is currently split into 2; those who see white and gold, and those who see black and blue (ahem, HOW is it black and blue?).
It seems like it is all anyone can talk about at the moment. Theories have surfaced, and people have even started memes based on it. Suddenly, everyone is obsessed with eye tricks and optical illusions.
Here, we bring you 10 mind-boggling home interiors that will leave you baffled at the end. Who knows? Maybe you’ll be able to gain inspiration from them.
1. Walk into the Wall
These murals extend the interior décor of any home. The way the artist, Nils Nova, blend real life into his works makes us feel like we just stepped into a different dimension. Visit his site for more intriguing designs.
2. Really Walk into the Wall
Speaking of walking into walls, you can literally walk into this one. It looks as if the dining area is carved straight out of a thick block. It also acts as a nice divider between 2 rooms. Space-saving and creative, we love it!
3. Cloud Bed
The illuminating light rays underneath this bed will make anyone who sleeps on it feel like an angel floating on a cloud. And hurray, no more stubbed toes from those nightly toilet trips since the floor is so well lit.
4. Ping-Pong Door
Imagine opening a door only to realise it spreads out into a ping-pong table. It may not be large enough for a real game, but it sure looks like the ideal size for beer pong matches.
5. Slide in the House
This looks like every child’s dream. Slide down from the bedroom to the kitchen to have breakfast, and from the kitchen out to the main door. Day = made!
6. Forest Light
You live in an urban jungle that is Singapore, but want to feel like you’re living in a real, peaceful jungle. This breaktaking ceiling light will make you feel like you’re home away from home. The shadows formed on the walls give off a spooky vibe, yet mesmerize us at the same time.
7. Open-Concept Home
We didn’t know if we should include this in the article because honestly, is this considered the interior or exterior of a house? The fusion between the 2 resulted in this extreme open concept. The only dilemma the homeowners will encounter is to find a blind spot whenever they want to change.
8. Levitating Seat
This chair looks unstable at first glance with a 2-legged support. You would probably be wary about sitting on it, until you realize the 'shadow' it casts is not actually a shadow.
9. Invisible Shelf
Who would've known that a slim piece of metal would be the answer to creating an optical illusion at home. This brilliant idea by Japanese designer Yasuko Furukawa not only maximizes desk space, it makes any room look instantly edgy.
10. Half-lamp
It seems as if the wall is halfway through devouring the lamp with this design by Northern Lighting. This wall-mounted light would leave guests wondering if they just entered twilight zone.
