I feel the same, it looks straight in the photo. The result looks very good for that. The poor tiler had to lay hundreds of individual tiles.

They learn that in the first year of apprenticeship... how to use a spirit level and a guide string. No one wants a crooked tile. I also believe that this is part of the craft of an averagely skilled tiler and not something for a better or more experienced one. Especially creating grout lines is the basis. However, silicone joints and crookedly plastered walls can often be deceptive - this also applies to the ceiling as well as the shower tray...

I was able to speak with the boss of 's Ganze today about the crooked tiles. We arranged to meet on site. Unfortunately, he didn’t have the construction site key with him, so we stood in front of a locked door.
He was still nice. Apparently, part of the crooked tiles had already been re-corrected. Maybe everything has turned out well. shifted.
In any case, they have never installed this type of tile before. This was the first time.
I jokingly said that they should be grateful to me because their tiler got to learn something again. Not always just large format in the middle and then fill the sides. He had to laugh at that.

Anyway, we arranged to meet again next week to take a look. I’m curious! Maybe it already looks better now.

A serious question... why don't YOU have a key to YOUR construction site?

No, I haven't. I am having it built through a property developer. I have bought a terraced house in a row with X other identical houses from the same developer (also commonly called Bau-Shark here ).

I will only get the key after completion.

Wow... is it always like that? I would freak out if I couldn’t go into MY house anytime.
