It's the bottom left corner as statet in:
http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Cocoa/TasksAndConcepts/ProgrammingTopics/DrawViews/Tasks/TransformingCoords.html
By default, an NSView's coordinate system is based at (0.0, 0.0) in the
lower-left corner of its bounds rectangle, its units are the same size as
those of its superview, and its axes are parallel to those of its frame
rectangle.
