North Facing Apartment

[myfs_136122]

Hi Mr Cecil
My fiancee belongs to the South house (Li), while I belong to the North-East house (Ken).
We're looking for an apartment in Beijing and we're considering Apartment 1. I've attached the floor plan for your reference. What's your suggestion?
Info:
(1) The main entrance of the whole building is facing North.
(2) My fiancee & I aremanaging our business together. We're both breadwinners.
(3) We intend to use the master bedroom (apartment 1), I'll sleep close to the west side while she sleeps close to the South side?
(4) But the main door is directly facing the other apartment's main door. I read that luck or good qi will be sucked away by the other apartment or vice versa, what are the remedies?
(5) I'm considering converting the storeroom to an open shoe resting area with hanging jacket cabinet for winter. The (storeroom) wall closest to the main door will be knocked down.
Please give me your advice.
Thanks very much
Wangchuk

COMMENTS: In my opinion, it depends! Sound more like: Grandmother's tale.
COMMENTS: In Singapore (SGP) in my opinion for condominiums; as high as 30 or more percent of flats have doors that face each other. For public housing; nowadays, this may be around 20 percent or less.
COMMENTS: Thus in my opinion, the above is no big deal.
Predominantly many homes in Beijing are North to South facing for a reason... because of the "dusts" blowing from the north.
