The Warehouse That Turns The Sky Pixelated. Clever, eye-brain-confusion-generating paint job on the exterior of a megastructure on the outskirts of Swindon. Just remember: if you run for the hills, you may bump into the sky. #building #painting #exterior #landscape #wiltshire #swindon #warehouse #sky #artificial #future #mountains #hills #fields #virtual #vr #eye #brain #confusion #opticalillusion (at Swindon)
