Description Possible, but ambiguous. It tiles the plane just right.

I like how it's lines of persistence outline two overlapped impossible triangles, but still the overall object is possible. Very well done.

I'm glad you saw these Reutersvard triangles. I didn't consciously design it that way, but I like flipping percepts between the triangles.

I don't think most viewers notice that form at all -- only those used to looking for impossible objects! I've thought about picking a coloring that would highlight the triangles, but hard to do well.

I wish fabric with a small diamond pattern were more common, with a few different shades.
