Overview

A weird city.

Notable buildings

Escher's Dream

While the exterior of this building is but some sort of modern and unimpressive cube, the interior is inspired by Dutch artist Maurits Cornelis Escher's Relativity lithograph (1953), a labyrinth-like series of staircases crisscross, where the staircases meet at impossible angles. Each of them opens to outside "worlds", near to identical but obeying to a different "well of gravity". Depending on how you look at it, the very notions of top, bottom, left or right become blurred.

One of the views is a representation from the lithograph. The other sides are an interpretation, trying to complete the architectural design beyond the part illustrated by the artist.
