I love symmetry. Everything in my house is positioned in a way that lines up perfectly with what is around it. My husband often laughs because I will get up from the couch to fix a crooked picture, or even worse, rearrange my magazine stack. But lately, I have been coming across several examples of rooms where the picture is not hung in the middle and the left doesn't match the right. I'm intrigued but still can't decide if I like it. Tell me what you think!
Off centered from the fire place: simple style or out of place?

Big piece of art all the way to one side rather than in the middle? And yet, the whole display is so purposeful. Is my house cool enough for something like this?

Looks symmetrical..until you see that little guy who snuck in the bottom corner. Genius? Or off? I just can't make up my mind!

I, too, am a sucker for symmetry and things being even. Who would have thought we'd have something in common?! :)
