You know, some flowers, perhaps a little shrubbery and a gazebo with stone steps to shake things up. Who would have thought [optical illusions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hooptical) would ever make it into these green escapes. Designed for Jeff Dauber, the Faulders Studio Deformscape is the product of [3D software](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mathematically-shaped) and custom-milled using marine-grade plywood, according to Today and Tomorrow. I’m definitely bookmarking this page as inspiration for my future garden. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Optical Illusion Gardens:** Designing garden spaces that create optical illusions, disrupting traditional garden norms. - **3D Software in Garden Design:** Utilizing 3D software to create customized garden designs, offering innovative and unique visuals. - **Marine-grade Plywood in Garden Structures:** Using marine-grade plywood to construct garden structures, providing durability and unconventional aesthetics. ### Where This Applies - **Landscape Architecture:** Landscape architects can explore the incorporation of optical illusions and 3D software in garden design to create captivating spaces. - **Outdoor Furniture and Decor:** The outdoor furniture and decor industry can tap into the trend of marine-grade plywood structures, offering unconventional and durable garden products. - **Virtual Garden Design Tools:** The virtual garden design tools industry can develop 3D software specifically tailored for garden design, allowing users to visualize and experiment with optical illusions in their outdoor spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Monumental Air Installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iwagumi-air-scape.md) - [Reflective Indoor Gardens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-caviar.md) - [Water-Less Minimal Design Gardens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/botnica.md) - [Sculptural Mall Dreamscape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unbounded-sanctuary.md) - [Interactive Architectural Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-landscape.md) - [Minimalist Illusory Vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vaso-gota-vase.md) - [Gradient Tonal Optical Vases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stretch-color.md) - [Kinetic Optical Illusion Puzzles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-woodflow.md) - [Campus-Based Cylindrical Glass Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mirage.md)
