Cheng Lou Shares Grid With Matching Horizontal and Vertical Poem

Cheng Lou an engineer at Midjourney who previously worked on React.js Facebook Messenger ReasonML and ReScript shared a reply that included an attached image. The dark green image carries the title “留一间 / A Room for You” under the header “横竖有诗 · HENGSHU”. It displays a grid of white Chinese characters that form the same coherent poem when read left to right or top to bottom. Cheng Lou noted that the arrangement produces matching readable text in both orientations. He also built Pretext. The post presents the grid as an example of this dual-direction property.
