0-indexed. Returns a 2D array of Unicode characters. The basic idea is that for lower rows, the expression

(x + (x+y)%2) % (3 ** trailing_zeros_in_base3(3*(y+1)))

yields the pattern

|....||....||....||....||..  % 3
..||....||....||....||....|  % 3
|................||........  % 9
..||....||....||....||....|  % 3
|....||....||....||....||..  % 3
........||................|  % 9
|....||....||....||....||..  % 3
..||....||....||....||....|  % 3
|..........................  % 27

For upper rows, the expression is

(x + (x+y+1)%2) % (3 ** trailing_zeros_in_base3(3*(y+3**n)))

Explanation

{ ... }o*R**3  # Feed $_ = 3^n into block

map ->\y{ ... },^$_  # Map y = 0..3^n-1

|map { ... },<┌ ┐>,$_,<└ ┘>,1  # Map pairs (('┌','┐'),3^n) for upper rows
                               # and (('└','┘'),1) for lower rows.
                               # Block takes items as s and v

( ... )xx$_*3  # Evaluate 3^(n+1) times, returning a list

 (++$+y)%2  # (x+y+1)%2 for upper rows, (x+y)%2 for lower rows
(         +$++)  # Add x
                   (y+$^v,*/3...*%3)  # Count trailing zeros of 3*(y+v) in base 3
                3**  # nth power of 3
               %  # Modulo
??$^s[$++%2]  # If there's a remainder yield chars in s alternately
!!'│'         # otherwise yield '│'

|'y is syntax specific to ngn/k. other dialects require a : to make an each-ed verb monadic: |:'y
