1. Feng Shui Apartments Start From 'Opening the Door to Orientation'

Much feng shui apartment being built in a prime location, beautiful natural landscape, meeting quality standards. However, not all apartments have the same feng shui in terms of apartment direction.

According to art feng shui apartment design shared by many experts, apartments often encounter many major shortcomings, often having to look at the main direction, the direction of the apartment building.

In ancient feng shui, there is a saying "Open the door in the right direction" which refers to the direction of the door.

After that, it will be based on the direction, calculate the age of the homeowner, and arrange the furniture appropriately. This calculation is not accurate because calculating the direction of the front of the building and behind the two sides of the building is only calculated on the ground floor, other floors are not accurate.

Many people believe that the direction of the apartment is the direction of the window and balcony door because this is the place to receive sunlight and wind due to the space in direct contact with the outside. From the direction of the apartment combined with the age of the homeowner, we can determine how to arrange furniture and decorate the interior according to feng shui.

In fact, this calculation is not accurate. The misconception is that elements of sun, wind or air are considered elements that create "air" in feng shui. 

In fact, "air" is created by human movement and interaction with the house. A simple test will prove this. If you cover all the windows and only use the main door, you can still live, even though it will be inconvenient. 

But if the main door is blocked, the apartment will certainly not be livable.  Therefore, the orientation of the apartment must be calculated from the direction of the door. Apartment feng shui There is an ancient saying "Open the door to establish the direction" which refers to this idea.

Characteristics of apartment buildings often include a lot of reinforced concrete, which easily distorts the compass needle, leading to inaccurate direction determination. Experience is to measure in many different locations, both inside and outside the apartment and building to choose the most accurate parameter.

2. Common Feng Shui Mistakes in Apartments

Overcome bad feng shui to bring wealth, health and luck to your family.

In fact, apartments often encounter some of the following basic Feng Shui errors:

Doors:

One of the difficulties that apartment owners encounter is that it is almost impossible to change the door system because it will affect the structure of the entire house.

+ The apartment door opens directly to the stairs or has a hallway running straight into it. This first affects private space. According to feng shui theory, the flow of energy into the house needs to be smooth, avoiding suddenness and conflict. An apartment that commits this mistake falls into a position where gossip can easily happen, and the homeowner is under a lot of pressure, which is not good.

Feng Shui Solution: Depending on the situation, the homeowner can hang a mirror, wind chimes or glass ball in front of the door to create unique features for their apartment and contribute to increasing the value of their home. Good feng shui prosperity.

Bedroom Doors Are Too Close Or Opposite Each Other. 

This is an error that causes chaos in energy, homeowners often encounter psychological insecurity, and many gossips. 

Solution: Homeowners can solve the problem by arranging a hallway lamp in the shape of a sphere. Using yellow light will help resolve conflicts. If the distance between the bedroom doors is large, the homeowner can place a pot of green plants between the two room doors, helping to separate the two spaces while creating an aesthetic look.

Toilet Area

Quite a few apartment designs encounter a taboo problem in feng shui, which is placing the toilet right near the door. Fixing apartments with this error is also difficult. 

The plan to adjust the door to another direction or another location is good in terms of feng shui but faces difficulties in construction.

In addition, when arranging the front room attached to a toilet area, it also has its own shortcomings. For example, if the direction of the house suits the homeowner, accidentally placing the toilet at the front of the house will limit that good factor.

3. Interior Arrangement Matching Apartment Feng Shui

The structure of many apartments often has columns in the house and many apartments even have missing corners. Homeowners can fix it by placing furniture to fill the columns, hanging large mirrors in the missing corners to "compensate" and create a feeling of fullness for the apartment.

The common characteristics of apartments are moderate area and continuity between used spaces. Looking from the outside, you can see the entire living room, kitchen, and even bedroom space inside.

According to the concept of feng shui, this feature will make the homeowner easily feel insecure. Especially for small families living together in a large apartment, this is more likely to happen. 

Kitchen space and living room Create ventilation for the apartment

Homeowners can fix this by using curtains or screens at the door. For kitchens, you can use shielded bars to separate the space and create privacy.

Each apartment is usually designed with 2 bedrooms and this also has an impact on feng shui. Besides choosing the direction of the bed that suits the owner's destiny, you should avoid facing the bathroom or facing the door. 

You also need to pay attention to the mirrors on the dressing table or wardrobe so that they do not shine directly into the bed or out the door. These two errors will cause psychological insecurity for the homeowner when sleeping, or weaken the flow of good energy in the room.

4. Taboos in Feng Shui for Apartment Buildings

When choosing an apartment, in addition to the door direction, we need to pay attention to both the external shape and internal structure.

In terms of shape, square-shaped apartments are the optimal option to choose. In the opposite case, for apartments that are distorted or have too large missing corners, it can be overcome by hanging a large mirror at the missing corners to compensate and create a feeling of fullness for the apartment.

Apartment interior feng shui standards

Regarding the internal structure, special attention should be paid to the toilet and kitchen areas because these are often pre-arranged spaces and very difficult to change.

Apartment feng shui The concept that in a house, the central area must always be bright and clean. Therefore, houses with toilets located in the middle of the house are taboo and very detrimental to health.

In addition, apartments that open the door and immediately see the kitchen also lose money according to the concept: "If you open the door, you will lose a lot of money." Meet these The apartment has feng shui Thus, you can use the bar to cover it to create privacy.

Currently, to create more appeal for the apartment, project owners often let customers arrange the space and arrange the interior of their house. Most areas such as toilets and kitchens must follow existing technical axes.

However, the homeowner can change the size to different sizes. Therefore, if you do not pay attention to the surrounding spaces above and below, you will easily encounter feng shui disadvantages.
