Kelly Harris asks us: “Which way does the window face”? Let’s see! Umm… Not as simple as I thought it would be. The principle of this Escher like, impossible object is same as with bidirectional face and safe doors illusion. This is old school illusion, as you see. I kinda like them more. Kelly also writes: “I’ve spent two weeks at work going through all of your illusions – very interesting. Found this at another site but unsure where. I hadn’t seen it in your collection.”

both ways
Whoa, Trippy.
I love this site!
Actually, it’s obvious you’re looking at it from below. All the shadowside facings go in that direction, and you have to actually ignore them to “see” it the other way, as in the other direction, they don’t exist. Therefore it’s not an intentional escher-style illusion at all.
I take it back.
The windowsill is drawn to be seen from above, while the window is drawn to be seen from below.
But if you cut out either part, it’s consistently one or the other.
It´s an illusion from Sandro del Prete
it faces neither way. it faces both ways. it faces. it is…….a paralellogram! yippe!
it faces Both if you ask me but it depends if you’re looking at the top or the bottom.
It´s an illusion!
It faces four ways: down-left, down-right, up-left, up-right.
That’s the illusion.
Uhhhhhh…idk! i guess both ways? neways i hate those kind of illusions!!
Very cool.
The top part of the window is facing the way that the girl is looking and the bottom part seems to be facing the same way the cat (or whatever is next to the girl inside) Is facing. Its really cool!
Arg, that’s why I hate drawing backgrounds, my perspective is off-kilter.
Its simply twisted.
