Dezine Tip of the Day - Trompe l'oeil
Firstly Trompe l'oeil is the art of painting to deceive the eye. It basically means that something is painted onto a wall in 3D so that when you look at it the room appears to carry on into the painted space.
Another way it is used, often false window frames are painted onto a wall and interesting landscapes are painted in the space to give the appearance that there are real windows with a view.
Trompe l'oeil adds a very definite artistic and three-dimensional element to a room. It also helps create the illusion of space and added dimension, and is a very good talking point.
