A golygon is any polygon with all right angles whose sides are consecutive integer lengths.

You can also explore #non-Euclidean space and here is the same action in #HyperbolicSpace (here in a #PoincaréDisc). #StraightLines are replaced by #GeodesicLines which look like #CircularArcs which intersect the #disc at #RightAngles. Circles are transformed to circles but their hyperbolic centres are not at their Euclidean centres.
Repeating the construction for Euclidean space, you can see that the parallel lines diverge.
