Part 1: Feng Shui of Commonwealth Towers Condo

Part 1: Feng Shui of Commonwealth Towers Condo & Flying Star facing directions

1. I have used the Sales brochure site plan to find the Flying Star facing directions of Commonwealth Towers.

1.1. Using this method: I found the readings at NE1 at 26 degrees and SW1 at 206 degrees.

2. I was able to reconcile the above using the streetdirectory map.

2.1 With the street directory map; the readings was NE1 at 30 degrees and SW1 at 210 degrees respectively.

3. Thus in both instances; there is close to 99.9% certainty that most of the stacks either face NE1 or SW1 with the exception of stacks 20 and 21.

Part 2: Feng Shui of Commonwealth Towers Condo & External Shapes and Forms

1. From a top down perspective, each tower block resemblances the former HDB 5-bedroom point blocks of the past.

2. There is just a slight variance in that Block 230 with stacks 01, 02, 03, 9, 10, 11 forms a protruding pyramid or arrow-head, that's all.

2,1?Same goes with Block 232 with stacks 12, 13, 14, 20, 21 & 22. Such formation allows especially Block 230's stacks 20 & 21 and Block 232's stacks 09 & 10 facing an acute angle towards NW-Westerly direction.

3. Whatever variation of the "point-block" under Shapes and Forms the twin blocks are considered a safe-design.

3.1 Simply because they allow AIR-flow (Qi) to circulate all round the blocks as well as each other/stack/unit.

3.2 And not like some "slab-blocks" which are harder to let air (qi) pass through that easily. Thus, in this area: the external Shapes and Forms score highly.

4. Under the Five Elements concept: each of the towers represents the "Wood" element. Wood element in essence refers to growth.

4.1. Thus the significance is good: "stay there and you get growth i.e. growth in career; children's growth.

4.2. Of course, one could consider plotting the Flying stars to check on any in balances - if any.

Part 3: Feng Shui of Commonwealth Towers Condo & External Threats - future overhead pedestrian link-way to MRT

1. One potential external threat to this development's stacks/unit is the future overhead pedestrian link-way to MRT roof-line.

2. Thus frankly it depends on the design of this link-way.

2.1 But often, the most "threatening" would be the "T-junction" that could be aimed to a certain unit within stacks 01 and 02.

3. Another concern is the long stretch of roof-line to shelter pedestrian staircase / escalator(s).

3.1 Depending on which storey one's unit is: there could be a potential sha qi or poison arrow aimed towards specific units ranging especially from 01, 02, 03 &11. And even stack 10.

4. Thus, try to avoid purchasing a low floor unit in one of these stacks. Safest is 6th storey onwards. But still; around such level; one can see the "ugly" view of the overhead pedestrian link-way roof line... from the frontage... not exactly a nice-view.

Part 4: Feng Shui of Commonwealth Towers Condo & Interior Layout Plans of 1 to 4 bedrooms

1. I have gone through the Shapes and Forms of 1 to 4 bedrooms.

2. I am happy that in general there is no major clashes especially that of the stove sharing a toilet wall with the exception of the 1 bedroom unit.

3. Even so, most likely the water tap pipe should not logically be sharing the same wall as the stove.

4. Same developer but such a vast difference between this project vs The Criterion Luxury EC

Hi,

Appreciate your fengshui views on Commonwealth Towers. Would like to find out on your opinions if Dawson Site B will affect the fengshui of Commonwealth Towers.

Thank you.

[Cecil Lee]

These are some considerations:

1. In general I have marked out some POTENTIAL threats (IF ANY).

2. I have not super-imposed the Commonwealth Towers site-plan onto this HDB site-plan.

3. If one has the time can do so.

3.1. And look out for potential threats especially marking in RED "B" ie the sharp corner of Blk 43A sack 318. It becomes a real threat if it is aimed towards an opening at Commonwealth Towers such as a window or a balcony or similar openings.

3.2. Marking in purple "B": that of the precinct pavilion may not be a concern since the apartments at Commonwealth Towers are not that low.

3.3. Marking in green "D" seems not a threat since it should not be aimed towards an apartment's opening (if any).

4. Another seemingly innocent poison arrow(s) are those formed by the "C" curve. Again, if one cannot see a horizontal roof-line aimed towards a unit at Commonwealth Towers; then this is again not a threat.

[Cecil Lee]

Sha Qi from a sharp corner of a block?

It also depends on distance.

For example, in this illustration: those Blocks / stacks circled in BLUE are considered as too far even if there are poison arrow(s) if any aimed towards Commonwealth Towers.

However, if these blocks are large buildings like those of  large skyscrapers like those we find in Shenton Way like UOB Plaza or The Twin towers Takashimaya in Orchard Road clad in marble... For these buildings; the poison arrow(s) throwing distance can be much more significant than ordinary condo stacks or even HDB stacks like that of stack 318 as mentioned, above.

Can I know from Feng Shui perspective what do you think of Commonwealth's stack 4 ?

It is a pity that other there is a void as shown in green "A".

This void between stack 03 and 04 is like a "chamber" that further magnifies the MRT train noise. Of course it does not affect the "other side" of the unit. But still such a pity...

Hopefully, the MRT track has a noise baffle screen...but not still have some noise.

Hopefully, one's unit will not be affected by the MRT track noise... again it depends on the storey etc..

The green arrows show potential noise from MRT trains.

[Guest ADL]

Hi there, can I know what is your opinion on stack 16? Thank you.

[Cecil Lee]

Commonwealth Towers Just T.O.P. 

Some units in this development has a main door facing the staircase cum household (bomb) shelter. Not ideal, but as there is a requirement that the staircase door has to be closed: thus the main door should never face the stairs directly. As it is inauspicious to do so:

[Guest CWT]

Hi, we are planning to rent a very high floor unit at stack 17. Is this a good stack to stay? Thank you. 

[Cecil Lee]

Pool facing unit is generally acceptable. 

More importantly, you and or family member’s.. feel of the place..
