There’s a good chance that what I’m about to show you will blow your mind! It’s a pretty awesome building illusions that, if you don’t know how it was done, will leave you wondering!

There’s not really much explaining this building illusion yet, so I’ll just have to show you and take it from there. You might even be able to figure it out on your own before I reveal the spoiler pictures at the end of the post.

This first image really isn’t that strange. I’m not really sure why people are sitting on their window ledges, but hey—to each their own, right? But, things start to get weirder from here…

Now this is a strange building illusion! People seem to be falling, crawling, and hanging all over the front of this building! Seems a little dangerous if you ask me. But is it really? Let’s check out another picture…

Are things starting to become a little clearer to you now? If not, this next image should completely give away the secret behind (or rather in front of) this awesome building illusion…

Do you understand now? The “building” in this building illusion isn’t a building at all. It’s nothing more than a mock building facade created on the ground, and a huge mirror is placed above the building facade at a 45 degree angle.

This interactive building illusion, constructed by Argentinean architect Leandro Erlich, allows people to get an interesting perspective of themselves. They can sit, crawl, stand, and lay down on the building facade and look up to see themselves in the mirror. I would love to play around on this interactive illusion! Alas! I don’t see myself making it to the Jing An Kerry Centre in Shanghai, China any time soon, so it looks like I’m a bit out of luck.

Wouldn’t you love to play on this interactive building illusion? If you ever travel the world, you can also make a stop in Holland and stay in this funky hotel! Don’t forget to send me a postcard!
