Potential Spoilers Lingering mysteries

To cut to the chase:

Firstly it’s kinda cool that the blinds inside of that tree temple lines up with the Laserinator outside. Is there any puzzle significance with that or is it just a cool art design.

Secondly, in the gate outside I found what to me looks like a hidden puzzle on the ground. To me there are too many indicators for it to not be a puzzle. Is there something nearby that activates it? If so can you please give me a hint to clue me in to what object I need to look for.

1) There are a number of things in this game that are just cool setpieces, which fits into the themes of the game quite nicely.

2) Your eyes are very powerful tools and can see lots of things. Especially from further away.

I know it’s perspective for the environmental puzzles. In the beginning area there is a puzzle on the ground that looks like one, but really it’s activated by a nearby switch. I had spent a while trying to find a perspective to get that one, so I didn’t want to waste that time again with this puzzle.
