Visual illusion

This was the first time I had witnessed an architectural pattern like this one, and it was unbelievable. The pattern composition was so complete, the light shining through so softly. After I captured this view and looked at it again, I realised that it actually looks like a two-dimensional shape instead of a three-dimensional one. However, I knew that it was really a three dimensional one. This illusion was very bizarre and intriguing to me.

This photo was captured from the interior part of a public estate in Hong Kong, China.

Your description reminds me of the 1980's TV show "Cosmos" where Dr. Carl Sagan is explaining what the shadow of a fourth dimension cube would look like in three dimensional space (hypercube or tesseract).

Chapter 10 The Edge of Forever

Well done, indeed!

This is just perfect for me! A great photograph!
