    This somehow messes with my viewing habits. Since the light source is in the "bottom" of the picture and the shadows face "north" the streets look to me like a bas relief and they appear to be higher than the houses. It took a while for my brain to switch it around.

    Yeah, me too.

    I do like the round layout of the city, mind you.

    Cool design. The city does sort of appear carved "bass relief" style into the landscape, as Jerron mentioned, but I kind of like that.
