The concept of designing contradictions is fun. Creating the maze must have been the kind of tedious work that only designers can get into. While it is tempting to try to solve it, I can’t imagine having the patience.

Project Description
I've always been attracted by contradictions. This poster is the first in a series of projects where contrast between what is said and what is shown is key. The maze is hand drawn and completely custom. It is absolutely possible to complete, if you're patient and crazy enough. It goes without saying that it is, of course, far from easy.Production Lesson(s)
The choice of paper is key, it can make or break your whole concept.
