The image features an arrangement of geometric shapes with a strong emphasis on symmetry and bold lines. At the center are two purple and two red squares arranged to form a larger, central cross. Surrounding this formation are four three-dimensional shapes resembling open boxes or diamond-like structures, each extending from the sides of the squares, oriented diagonally. These outer shapes have black outlines and are arranged in a pinwheel or flower-like pattern. The overall design combines simple geometric forms into a pattern.
