Almost Invisible, Unmistakably Important

While working on this Still Stand sculpture, there was an awkward moment: once assembled, I noticed some tension in the top two pieces.

They seemed slightly off, as if they had taken their own path. Nothing dramatic, but once you see it... you can’t unsee it.

Everything happened at lightning speed—sale, design, development, manufacturing. It all flowed. But in the final review, the alignment felt off. Just a few millimeters. Just enough to unsettle the eye—and the soul.

I took my time deciding what to do. Disassemble? Adjust? In the end, shifting it by just a couple of millimeters brought the perfect visual balance. Only then was it ready to be delivered.

Sometimes, a couple of millimeters make all the difference. Details that no one else will notice, but that let you sleep soundly. Because in the end, true comfort is knowing you’re at peace with your ideas.
