    You can blame the sprinkler head at the bottom of the picture for the lower angled part being at a different angle

    Just be glad all of the intersections meet at the same point. If it were all off, especially by irregular amounts, this would be far worse. And I’ve seen that. A lot

    Whoever installed this at least did a good job and tried to do the best they could.

        I get that this is mildlyinfuriating, but a single instance of maybe an inch of misalignment in an install like that is damn impressive.

        They’re very very close. I assure you, it could be far worse.

        Also, that doesn’t seem like something that a person would casually notice unless they stared at it for a long time.

          Maybe not you…I can’t unsee shit like that. I can’t look at paintings in homes near airports… There’s a lot of people who easily see misalignments of a fraction of a degree without trying

          And it’s always worse from a distance, always worse in person

    I swear I have never seen a diagonal of these ceilings that has been properly aligned. Thank God most rooms are square or rectangular so we don’t have to worry about such things.
