The only one I can’t be sure of is the third, cause it could be the angle of a parallelepiped seen by the inside or the outside. The close-up makes it difficult to understand which is the truth.

i see it and I have seen these kinds of thing in real life before too

the first one is used a lot in cultural buildings

The second is a hole in a roof, the light comes in at a certain angle to make the room look better

and the third is the top corner of a room

I can see both sides if I focus and make my eyes adjust.

the first can be easily classified as a hole in floor/ceiling because if you look closely you can see the surrounding brickword at the front of the hole infront of the whole this would not be there if it was convex

if you look at the third it could be a cube with a top and sides not just "a corner with cobwebs or dodgy plaster"

haha

fun stuff

All three are insight rich figures about how perceived depths (convex vs concave) are determined, and what information is used for giving rise to such a particular percept. I believe all three are worth of psychological inquiry.

1st. I'm sure its impressed, by the lines and light. Maybe it's on the floor.

2nd. Obviously impressed too. For a skylight.

3rd. Not sure. The edges make think in a embossed cube corner but some lines look as spiderwebs. Based on the light and some shapes I say impressed room corner.
