A messy utility room? Or a classical colonnade? These cunning posters fool the eye into 'seeing' a corridor that isn't there
Imagine if there could be one doorway in your house that revealed something a little more exciting than an untidy teenager's bedroom or a cluttered 'home office' full of things you haven't taken to the charity shop yet.
Imagine a home which has doorways which lead into an atmospheric Parisian stairway, a classical column-lined corridor or even a mysteriously dark and winding staircase.
These stunning Trompe l'oeil doors are simple fabric designs which deceive the eye into thinking there is a 3D scene behind the door by using ultra-high quality images.
Other real-life designs include a messy stack of books, a shuttered French shop front and an empty wardrobe complete with hangers.
The £125 fabric posters can be trimmed to fit any door with a regular pair of scissors and are simply glued in place.
The highly durable and washable images are the latest interior design idea created by Christophe Koziel for Couture Deco.
What better way to disguise a messy roomful of books than with this, slightly more artful, messy stack of books?
You can liven up a dull corridor with uplifting views, such as this picturesque Paris street
Trompe-l'oeil - it translates from the French as 'deceive the eye' - is an art technique that creates the illusion of three dimensional depth by using an extremely realistic printing technique.
A spokesman for Couture said: 'These true realistic decors are very easy to install and no advanced technical skill is required. They are guaranteed to make a buzz at your next dinner party.'
You can create an air of mystery in the most ordinary suburban semi by sticking this atmospheric 'Catacombs' image to an internal door
Last year similar remarkable designs were produced to liven up garage doorways in quite suburban estates.
They included images showing Formula One racing cars, a private jet, a speedboat, a beach and a New York subway.
Other fun designs showed an alligator eating the owners' car and a giant elephant taking a rest in the garage.
