#instameaning Day 5: Symmetry

I posted about asymmetry yesterday so I thought it was only fair to touch on symmetry today.

Utilities need symmetry. Man made utilities. Nature seems to rarely reveal its symmetry. I wonder how natural absolute precision is then? 

When I design web elements the design seems to hold together better when it’s not 100% mathematically balanced.

To me that feels fluid, it feels natural.
