Corner House Illusion
June 04, 2007 by Vurdlak
I believe we've seen similar optical illusions on this site before. However it is really awesome, if you know how to look at it! Here is what I want you to do. First cover the upper half of the picture with your palm, and you'll automatically assume that the window corner of this building is convex (bulged out). Now try covering the lower half of the photo, and you will see the inner corner of the building (concave this time). Amazing isn't it? Using this method you get much better experience than simply by looking at it. Some of the guys I presented this image with, couldn't spot anything wrong before I explained them to cover half of it using their palms. I just noticed Colin made another guest post, so I'm approving it next. Enjoy! For our new visitors, please check the optical illusion widgets. You'll be amazed what you can find there, and download it freely ;)

all i can say is WOW
Indeed, this one is really, really good. An illusion to the bone...
WOW
WWO
OWW
WOW
Wow thats amazing
awesome. I love it
I dont see anything..it looks facing outward either way...
its kinda annoying how the shadows work. if you pay enough attention the way the shadows are and the girl is, alogn with those... things at the bottom of the windows. it just doesnt work properly. i see how it twists back anf forth from tuop to bottom. but i cant hold the image of looking from the bottom cause of those elements :(
thats amazing but if u look at the left one nd how he guys head is in front of the left shutter its impossible bc look at the top of the left shutter so this is also an impossible pic
Wierd man!
Wowww Awesome rad sweet
Wow, two Colins here! :) (I'm the guest editor Colin). It's a very cool illusion! Personally, I sometimes see it being half convex and half concave, with the transition line those tree shadows. Very nice! :)
Oh. My. Bob.
DUDE THATS TOTALLY SWEET MAN!!!!
i like it
good job
keep it up
IT GAVE ME A HEAD ACHE......OWWWW
A really good one in a while.
If you like this, then take a look at MC Eshers work! It's very similar to this but also he has made very different art pieces.
thats awesome.....
This is proper illusionage, old school.
It's nice to see some stuff like this every now and again
It´s from Istvan Orosz
Now we're talking! This is the reason why I have your site as a widget on my dash.
wow-oweewa
its stupid it dosent make sense if u look at it properly,like the window on the left and the person in the window, it just dosent work.
Very good, I agree with Colin...WOW
Very cool!
I like the fact that when you cover the lower half of the pic, you appear to be looking up at the building. If you cover the upper half, you appear to be looking down at it.
One of the best I've seen in a long time, had to show and send to my whole family
wow if i just focus my eyes diferently it does the same think Sweet
i have to say than i think its a good one but u can easly say thats out croner take look on shadow from tree on right side and none of it no left thats an edge
but still windows are great
