You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Whyyy would people put tiles in that way? Those are the ones that get me. The whole floor/wall/whatever should be stripped out and redone properly.

the pain...

in fact, ocd-triggering non-concistencies are very fascinating to me, because as an illustrator, they aid in replicating precisely that half-assedness often seen in designs and stuff. Assymetrical buildings and such... :D on my own, or for my own sake, I could never allow it :D But when imitating reality, I must try to include that stuff! :D

Some asymmetrical architecture is really nice. Bad tile jobs are annoying though.

This is a church less than a mile from my house and I drive by it a lot and it drives me nuts.  On the left is easy to see  but on the right there is a dark patch  towards the top. :zombiefuck:  Next time I think they will check the lot numbers on the siding :zoinks:

Some asymmetrical architecture is really nice.

Not saying the end result is necesarily bad - but it is something my mind will not allow :D

For example, if I try to design a space-craft, or a building, or something, for some project, my mind obsessively needs things to be symmetrical "in balance", in a right order, etc

while in reality, there is often much more assymetry - and I also notice a lot of designs for movies etc, of space craft or buildings, features this assymetry as well.

To me assymetry and disorder is counter intuitive, something I must conciously remind myself and include, for the sake of realism

I see, just saying you can't personally create it. Some of the things I design are asymmetrical; usually with lots of curves, it's nice, but it's all in my head so it doesn't matter anyway. :laugh:
