Probably inspired by Henry Lim’s LEGO installation, Eric submitted these fun-lookingVolkswagen billboards. By now, you are all aware that these ads were based on M.C. Escher’s “Relativity“, “Waterfall” and “House of Stairs“. In the gallery below, I included all of the three original posters done by Volkswagen for their “4Motion” van. I think their pitch-line “Get to the jobs others can’t!” suits this Escher campaign perfectly! Have you seen any of these out in the wild?

Very Nice twist on Escher’s illusions! i like it!
weird…
Escher and Volkswagen. A match made in heaven.
I think it’s a cheap ripoff of a fine artist, and shows an absolute lack of imagination. If they can’t thnk of something creative on their own, then just show a picture of the damn car!
Very interesting, i would rate it a 5/5
is it real? i mean, a real billboard? where is it from?
This is quite interesting and the repeated volkswagons make a bigger effect. I don’t think this would be impossible to build with lego, unlike impossible objects. This is very easy t build and with a lot of inventive skills I’d like to actually see a house built like this one day. It is possible with bricks. If anyone ever builds a house like this, do post…
its a cool add you gotta admit it
I love MC Escher.
It’s possible maybe not just with briks im thinking plaster boards and all that Jazz, but deffinitly gonna have a room like this in my house when im rich and famous!! haha!
Reminds me of that show “warehouse 13″
so confusing but so cool!
