Why, What & How Balance Matters

Why I Chose This Word

Balance is the word that stood out to me because it appears everywhere in our lives — in our bodies, minds, relationships, routines, decisions, and emotions. It is something we all search for, sometimes without even realizing it.

WHAT ⚖️

What Balance Means

Balance is the state of harmony between different forces. It can be physical, emotional, mental, social, or digital. It represents stability, clarity, and the ability to remain centered even when life becomes overwhelming.

HOW ⚙️

How Balance Shapes Our Lives

We build balance through small, conscious actions: slowing down when life speeds up, listening to ourselves, prioritizing what truly matters, and creating space for rest, joy, and reflection.

“Balance is not something you find.
It’s something you create.”

LOGO STORY

The Story Behind the Logo

The Balance logo represents harmony between strength and calm. The panda symbolizes peace, patience, and inner stability, while the bamboo reflects growth, flexibility, and resilience.

But the story behind this sticker is more complex.

I bought it at a flea market I visited with two friends from university. Since then, it has been stuck on my laptop, right next to the keyboard. When we were asked to choose a word for this project, several ideas initially caught my attention. However, my eyes naturally drifted to this sticker near my hand. I remembered the moment I bought it, smiled, and realized that this was the word I needed to choose: “Balance.” While working on this project, I came to understand how many meanings this word truly has and how balance exists everywhere around us, in visible and subtle ways alike.
