Sierpinski Carpet by

Take a square, and divide it into nine equal smaller squares. Take away the one in the middle, leaving eight. Now divide those eight into even smaller squares, and remove the centres … and do it again … and again …

You now have a Sierpinski Carpet, a fractal shape with zero area, but infinite boundary length. Cool, huh?
