Assuming a standard 36" wide front door, then the next "front" door would be 22.27 inches, then 13.78 inches, then 8.53 inches, at which point I doubt the inspector could squeeze through it, though I guess they could still take a peek inside the next recursion.

"The odd part about it is the bottom right corner, which appears to be infinitely recursive copies.."

The whole right side is the left side, shrunk and recursed. Each iteration rotated 90 degrees. The 'shrink' is about 1.616 by my squint, a lot like a "Golden Ratio" LOGarithmic spiral, as NickM says. PRR (talk) 19:49, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
