Sephora Unveils Stunning 3D Banner in Madrid City Center

Published on April 10, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

Sephora has installed a three-dimensional effect advertising billboard in a central location in Madrid. The campaign, developed by Control Publicidad, aims to capture the attention of passersby through an immersive visual proposal. This action bets on 3D technology to generate a high level of brand recall in a competitive urban environment.

A 3D Sephora billboard unfolds on a building in downtown Madrid, creating a striking optical illusion for passersby.

The technique behind the urban volume effect 🧠

The visual impact is achieved through high-resolution printing and a calculated design to create the optical illusion of depth. The composition uses forced perspectives and strategic shadows that interact with the pedestrian's viewing angle. The installation on a corner with high foot traffic enhances the effect, making the graphic appear to emerge from the facade plane.

Madrid wonders if it's advertising or a dimensional portal 😲

The billboard has achieved its goal: people stop. Some look puzzled, others pull out their phones. Some cross the street to see if the effect changes. It's only a matter of time before someone tries to touch the product that seems to float, discovering it's just a masterful illusion. Sephora sells us beauty, but along the way gifts us a street visual depth test.
