Portrait Illusion: The portrait of Willem Jan Holsboer creates a 3D effect, making the head appear to turn with the viewer.
Experience Wagon: Two large illuminated boxes invite discovery.
Floating Track: Distorted surroundings give the guiding track a weightless appearance.
Moire Slider: Overlapping printed foils reveal dynamic patterns when the slider is moved.
Escher Viaduct: A showcase presents a model of the Landwasser Viaduct as a clever optical illusion.
