Every threshold is a decision. The edge of a margin, the weight of a line, the pause between sections -- each one declares: until here, and no further. This is what "kkaji" means. Not limitation, but definition. The moment where possibility becomes form.
Precision is not the enemy of warmth. A well-set line of type has the same comfort as a well-made chair. The care is invisible, but the body knows.
Linen knows how to fold. Leather knows how to age. Terracotta knows how to breathe in summer and retain warmth in winter. The craftsperson's job is not to impose form on material, but to discover the form the material already contains. Software is a material too. Code has grain, like wood. Design has weight, like paper. And every pixel on this page was placed with the same deliberation as a mason laying stone -- not because the pixel demanded it, but because the viewer deserves it.
Margins are not wasted space. They are the silence between notes, the breath between sentences, the threshold that gives meaning to what it borders. A page with no margins is not generous -- it is anxious, afraid that emptiness implies absence.
In Korean, "까지" marks the boundary of inclusion: "from here until there." It defines scope with grammatical precision. This site operates by the same principle. Every element exists within its designated threshold. Nothing leaks. Nothing overflows. The containment is the craft.
