The fact that the inner corner of a room looks farther away than the outer corner of a building provides one explanation of the:
Muller-Lyer illusion
The Muller-Lyer illusion is the classic figure in which two equal-length lines look unequal because of the outward-pointing (>-<) or inward-pointing (<->) arrowheads attached to their ends.
Gregory's misapplied size-constancy account explains this by treating the arrowheads as depth cues: the inward-pointing fins mimic the receding inner corner of a room (perceived as farther), while the outward-pointing fins mimic the projecting outer corner of a building (perceived as nearer). The visual system scales the 'farther' line up in perceived length.
Hence, the correct answer is the Muller-Lyer illusion.
