This design is inspired by the Japanese proverb, “The nail that sticks out gets hammered.” Konosuke Matsushita, founder of Panasonic and often called the ‘god of management,’ offered a wiser view: the nail that sticks out too far cannot be hammered down. Like Hokusai’s Great Wave, it celebrates the courage to move freely, stand out, and embody strength that cannot be restrained.
