40 Genius Illustrations From The King Of Negative Space Design Noma Bar

There’s something satisfying about art that makes your brain do a double take, where you see one thing and then suddenly you’re seeing three other things in the same image.

Noma Bar does this with negative space design—the kind where every empty spot is actually part of the image, and once you notice it you can’t unsee it.

He’s been called the king of this style for a reason, his illustrations are clean and simple but packed with multiple meanings depending on how you look at them.

Some are political, some are just visual puzzles, all of them make you stop scrolling for a second to figure out what’s actually happening.

These are some of our favorites from his body of work.
