This 3D chessboard by Ji Lee turns the classic game of chess into an epic battle. The king and queen are placed at the top of each side of the board, while the remainder of the chess pieces cascade down according to rank.
Ji Lee's 3D chessboard sort of reminds me of an M.C. Escher drawing with its checkered board and hypnotic pattern of cube-shaped steps.
Implications - I'd say this epic chessboard would easily fit into many geeky chess players lives, and even those who exude cool chess player style are sure to appreciate this battle-driven 3 dimensional chessboard by Ji Lee! What do you think?
