contents We prove that the set of complex irrationals whose partial quotients in their Hurwitz continued fraction expansion are naturally regarded as subsets of $\mathbb Z^2$ and contain infinitely many homothetic copies of any finite subset of $\mathbb Z^2$ is of Hausdorff dimension $1$. Our result provides a clear and concrete example of multidimensional pattern emergence in number-theoretic expansions.
