This research suggests a new interpretation of black holes in which the event horizon represents the termination of physical reality. In this view, when curvature approaches a critical threshold, the three-dimensional spatial geometry may undergo a dimensional compression into a two-dimensional manifold—the boundawall—that preserves gravitational continuity while preventing further causal evolution. Inside this surface, spacetime would cease to exist. All mass-energy and information would then be confined to the boundawall, forming a structure consistent with the external Schwarzschild geometry and the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy law. We outline a possible Dimensional Conversion Law that could govern this phenomenon, and discuss the conservation, causal, and thermodynamic implications of the boundawall. Finally, we comment on potential observational consistency and on limited predictions such as surface-mode signatures. In this theory, the event horizon is viewed not merely as a limit of observation, but as a potential boundary/wall of existence itself.
