Distorted Room (Ames Room)
Little one grows tall.
An absolutely ordinary room, at least when viewed through the peephole. But wait, the little brother grows taller than the big sister here!
Slanted floor, tilted back wall, crooked windows: with one eye, our ability to perceive depth is limited. As a result, we don’t notice how distorted the room’s geometry really is. However, we perceive the size of the people we see through the peephole relative to the space.
