The house, which has become famous for its optical illusion, was created by artist Regina Walters. It can be seen in a field near Bankstown Airport close to Sydney.

A post on the Hidden Sydney Instagram page explains the history of the house. "The concept is derived from the work of the Sydney Camouflage Group led by Zoologist William Dakin. Made up of artists including Max Dupain and Frank Hinder, the group worked at Bankstown Airport during WWII,” the account explains.

"They used experimental camouflage design techniques and methods to disguise, decoy and deceive the attackers. The work is also an adaption of Roy Lichtenstein's illusion house series, using some of the group's optical trickery through similar elements of deception.

"In 2009, the artwork was unveiled at the Tower Road and Henery Lawson Drive entrance to Sydney Metro Airport Bankstown. At the same time, the 'Crosscurrents - Georges River Artwalks' Project was launched to commemorate Bankstown's developments from its original Aboriginal inhabitants, early colonial settlement and immigrations to present.
