The 3D Zebra
crossing is the future (Picture: Cover Images)
This 3D zebra crossing is the future of road safety. It’s currently being trialled in Ísafjörður,
Iceland, and looks brilliant.
But it’s not just
about looking cool, the 3D effect also makes it easier for drivers to see the crossing.
Ralf Trylla, who is
the Icelandic environmental commissioner, pushed through the idea after seeing a similar
optical illusion drawn in New Delhi, India. Street painting firm Vegmálun GÍH then brought the
concept to life. The
design, which took a few weeks to complete, makes it appear as if the zebra crossing is
shifting depending where you observe it from. From above the white lines look like columns
but at ground level they look like they’re hovering.
