Usually, one of the first considerations other than: location, location and location. Is to understand what are the breadwinner's best directions:- This is a sample ... Dear MR ABC, 1. To help you narrow down, the search (provided that development has specific facing directions) suitable to you:- Breadwinner: MR ABC Direction of Frontage. (Most of the time, it is standing inside the living room facing towards the windows or balcony - especially if most of the bedrooms are along this stretch of the stack). Excellent House From now to 2023; your best facing directions are:- Top Choice: NE1 (22.5-37.4) , NE2 (37.5-52.4) , NE3 (52.5-67.4) 2nd Ranked or N…

Question: Master, may I do a quick check? Can son's bed be pushed back all the way to the wall where the window is? Reply: More to do with common sense then Feng Shui: 1. Installed grille? If not child can climb onto the window. 2. If windows open; strong winds and even some rain may come in. 3. If cigarette butt from top floor. If window always shut; no issue. Thus this has more to do with cow sense then Feng Shui.

Question: Instead of placing my dining table at the purple marking "A"; Can I place my dining table at marking "B", instead i.e. facing the main door. Repy: 1. When entering a residence, our attention is typically drawn to the immediate environment around us. 2. Imagine, for some individuals, they tend to clutter their dining table with various items such as old cell phones, chargers, and books. What kind of impression does this give? 3. It is advisable to have a barrier between the dining table and the front door to maintain privacy. However, many partition walls have openings for display, making the dining table partially visible. 4. If there is…

Can we use vertical bar window grilles? This has more to do with common sense then Feng Shui. For example, if one's grilles are casement windows; it does not matter that much if the window grille bars are horizontal or vertical. However, if the one has sliding windows; then it makes more sense if the window grille bars are horizontal. Why? Pure common sense. In order to open or close sliding windows, the most efficent grilles are those that are horizontal bars. This allows for swift motion to slide the windows unobstructed with horizontal grilles. But if vertical grilles were to be installed, one may have to frequently remove the hands and place it into one or more vertic…

Case Study: Do you know that even if a geomancer says that the site is excellent, all sites are still govern by the concept of the Bell Curve 1. Remember, even if a geomancer says that this is a good development. However, a good unit also depends on where it is within the development: 2. Is your potential unit under the Good, the Bad or the Ugly? 3. Often if one is lucky, even if the unit is not so fantastic superficially. Some units are like an unpolished gem. While others unfortunately may be a hopeless rotten apple. 3.1. Just imagine, if the unit is like a 10 year old rundown 1,000 cc car. Even a good Feng Shui Master is unable to turn i…

Without Prejudice: The Lanai at Hillview Avenue and termite infestation. It just T.O.P. Not too long ago in 2015. (A mere three year old development). In my opinion, as this development is at the foot of Hillview Avenue; Most likely with poor drainage has led to termite infestations especially at the lower block(s). Thus unfortunately, such a situation would affect the resale vale. Unless the new potential buyers are unsuspecting of it. The suspect has to do with the drainage or water retention of this development that is on the foot of the Hillview avenue hill:- Once termites appear, it is much harder to repel especially if the design …

Case Study: The table leg is a X shape, is that ok? 1. Feng Shui does not micro manage this. 2. It has more to do with common sense = centre-of-gravity and safety. Such that if a toddler were to stand on the corner of the table, will it topple or not. 3. However, another area is about SYMBOLISM (technically this is a standalone concern but some link this with Feng Shui). As we all know an "X" is not exactly a popular symbol to many people. What more to some, a dining table is considered an important piece of furniture in the home!. 3.1 If you have busy bodies who tell you that it is bad luck to have this type of table. 3.2 The owner may start to…

When we discuss fire element, usually, lighting is not taken into consideration in this caution note! Although Red is considered an auspicious colour, the following need to be taken into consideration:- If one is not sure, or had not properly consulted a Feng Shui practitioner, it is best not to use fire (red, pink or purple) liberally because: 1. Fire element will fuel or help earth element. (For those who are aware of Flying Star Feng Shui, it will further fuel bad earth e.g. #2 sickness or #5 misfortune, sickness. 2. Fire element is also a destroyer or the metal element especially if it is used as a cure. Besides, this, there are more considerations with regards to fir…

These are further considerations: 1. As this layout plan has an "unusual" pistol like grip (main entrance narrow corridor) and other quirks like a protuding balcony and some missing corner to the left side of the balcony; 1.1. Thus based on the ART of determining the center of this layout; one must take note that in such a situation; particularly the "pistol grip"; it is not practical to apply what I had mentioned; the idea of matching missing corners with protusions. 1.2. In many purely rectangular and squarish layout plans without unusual protusions like the above pistol grip; using eye-ball; often I would try to visualise to make sure that the missing corners is nearl…

1. In my opinion, frankly having reviewed hundred thousands of layout plans for both the developersand consumers (buyers); few would even use the correlation of the "centre of gravity" as the premiseto determine the layout plan. If you look at it carefully, there is nothing magical or hocus pocus about determining the centrepoint. 2.As in your the case the layout plan that you had furnished shows the toilet at the centrepoint. This is considered one "major" leak. And oftern from my past experience, one"major" leak in a home or up to at leasttwo to three can still be sustainable. More "leaks" and the home or apartment literally goes downhill. Jess C. wrote: Wow Master Le…

In General, these are the considerations or pairings of roof tile colors and exterior wall finishes:- 1. If possible, it is advisable to avoid a BLUE roof. According to the I-ching, blue symbolizes difficulty, and if it covers the entire roof, it resembles water above you. 2. If a blue roof MUST be utilized, then the exterior walls should be white or off-white, but never cream or beige. 3. If a grey roof is chosen, the optimal choice for the exterior walls is white. Grey exterior walls are acceptable, but if a grey roof is used, cream or beige walls should be avoided. 4. According to the current Feng Shui period, the most favorable colors are earth ton…

Common sense and concealed gas pipes in the kitchen Many executive condominiums and other condos are connected to a piped gas supply. For cosmetic reasons, some developments have gas pipes hidden within the plastered walls. There was an incident where a contractor drilled into a wall while installing kitchen cabinets, which caused a gas leak throughout the entire apartment. This important warning was found on the notice board at Park Green @ Rivervale Link. Be cautious of concealed gas pipes during renovation: 1. Ensure concealed gas pipes are not damaged. 2. Identify the location of concealed gas pipes using your home's gas pipe layout plan or a m…

Has it got to do with common sense? Yes, if it regards to how many legs can or should a dining table have? Generalised Feng shui originated from this common sense. This is why most geomancers felt that dining tables should have four legs. This illustration seems to suggest that if one leans at the edge of the table, will the table topple down? In normal circumstances, if a table has four legs at each corner of the edge, common sense says that no way such a table can tip or topple down. Please look at the illustration, below. If quality materials and good structural integrity is there, this tabl…
