Some problems resist solution…
until the frame around them changes.
In this Holmes UnLimited Field Note, Holmes reflects on a corner building, a weary entrepreneur, and a conversation that began with spreadsheets and redevelopment plans… yet gradually uncovered something far less visible shaping the investigation beneath them both.
A handsome Victorian property. Eight impossible windows. And a question that refused to loosen its grip.
But sometimes the tension inside a problem does not come from the numbers themselves…
only from the frame through which we’ve been taught to see them.
A short investigation into assumptions, perspective, and the inherited frames that quietly shape our decisions.
For those who wish to go deeper, the accompanying Investigator’s Companion may be found
