The Art of Auspicious Interior Arrangement
Feng Shui for Architecture Design and Environment
Feng
Shui often gets a bad rap among conservatives, mostly in my opinion,
for good reason. The little chimes and Ba-Gua's most people use are
nothing more than superstition, although the information they attempt
to mimic is rooted in science that has been studied....well, for a long
long time. (Photo by

Why
did I start to pay attention to Feng Shui? Because as a real estate
agent, I noticed, after a while - that certain properties, seemed to go
on the market every year or two, repeatedly. To me that was an
indication that for whatever reason, it was impossible for the
occupants to get comfortable and settle in.
Even within the same
Condo complex, certain units will constantly change hands while others
stay settled - and that is true even for units with identical floor
plans and finishes. Unit 1 will change hands 3 times in a five or seven
year period, while Unit 2 (same floor plan flipped) stays put for years.
I
have a confession, I have not yet had my home 'Feng Shui'd' if you
will. The reason is simple, a Feng Shui master is expensive and VERY
hard to come by which is why the true masters end up working for the
high end homes and corporate clients.
If you are interested in
learning a little more my favorite web site is maintained by an
architect friend of mine, Simona Mainini, located in LA county. For
most people flying her up to consult on their home will be too cost
prohibitive, but her newsletter is free and full of interesting facts
and information. FengShuiArch.com
