Staff Cecil Lee Posted March 9, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted March 9, 2021 Another situation which can be answered by common sense... Gd morning! Exploring one more idea. Is it advisable to have the stairs in living hall designed this way rather than L-shape? Is a set of straight staircase inauspicious? Blame this on Feng Shui! Feng Shui’s preference for the regular turn. As some say qi can meander upstairs. Actually this is a poor FS excuse. With a landing... if someone slips and fall, at least there is a break. Here, good luck! If some falls... and elderly also don’t have a rest stop Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted June 1, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Additional Case Study: I noticed the main door (via Private Lift Lobby) seems to be facing the master bedroom door which is not good? If the bedroom door is always closed, will that still be a concern? This is based on common sense. Where in some layouts, one can even look into the bed and/or see an activity on the bed. What activity? Use your imagination! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted June 5, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Additional Case Study: Hi Cecil I just wanted to get some opinion on the kitchen arrangement. If you are ok to provide some advice. OK.. I be more specific. Is it OK the stove is quite close to the main door? But cannot see fr main door.. If one meets a conservative FS Master, it is a no no. But the underlined concern is based on common sense. If unit is high floor, and touchwood if a fire break out at the most probable location at the kitchen stove, then may have to jump down from the balcony or bedroom windows Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 18, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 Additional resources: IT'S SIMPLY PURE COMMON SENSE 1. I had previously written and even shown photos of this "junction". 2. In the past, before Singapore had a network of expressways; many vehicles coming from Katong, Telok Kurau and Siglap used to past through this once upon a time busy STRAIGHT (UPSTREAM) Mountbatten Road:- 2.1. By the way, the earlier colonial planners or civil engineers that had designed this road, frankly ought to be hung to dry or like the Nazi's hung by piano wires for such a shoddy work. Really, who in the world design such angular roads? Anyway by now should already they should have been "6 foot under" buried somewhere in the UK. 3. In fact, there were a few incidents or close-call where a few vehicles plough through house No. 11 Mountbatten Road. 3.1. Common sense says that inevitably a straight road = Mountbatten Road + Right Hand Drive country + some drunks + night time would result in several instances of vehicles simply ploughing into the compound of house Number 11:- 3.2. This is the reason why I was interested in what is beyond the original photo shown, here:- 4. For example, if the road is similar to the above: a stretch of straight road, then I would indeed be concerned about it. 5. Today, Mountbatten Road (formerly called Olive Road) .. but changed to Mountbatten Road was to honour the late LORD Mountbatten who was part of the Royal Family who was unfortunately killed by the IRA on a boat ride. 6. Today, also House 11 has been converted into a Kindergarten. And there is a highway style barrier at this stretch or corner. This barrier will certainly contain or deflect any rogue vehicles - cars (other than perhaps heavy vehicles). 7. Frankly, this review should actually be classified as COMMON SENSE and not even Feng Shui. 8. It indirectly becomes BAD Feng Shui is when something really happens. Then as a consequence people will then say the HOUSE has BAD or ROTTEN Feng Shui right? P.S. Princess-former US actor = Grace Kelly also met her death through a sharp turn in Monaco. Speeding +unable to manage the vehicle was also a recipe for calamity. Reference: Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Cecil Lee Posted August 29, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 Avoid running a water pipe close to the stove. Thus if a water pipe has to pass through the stove to the sink; best that the water pipe runs close to the floor. This is to avoid having the water pipe heated if it runs say 6 inches past the stove.

Staff Cecil Lee Posted November 11, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted November 11, 2021 Another Common Sense thing Hi Mr Cecil, my contractor told me under fengshui living room floor has to be slightly higher than kitchen, is this true? Outdated common sense. Common sense in the past because frequent washing of the kitchen flooring. Thus don't want washing water to flow into the DINING flooring. Not so much the living room. Ask contractor to update themselves. Nowadays all new homes all same level. Hopefully don't pull a fast one. Ask him.. does it mean that it will cost more for you?

Staff Cecil Lee Posted December 13, 2021 Author Staff Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 More… Why bed-head directions no indicative numbers? it seems that only the writing table direction is only indicated correct? For example, Hi [hidden], The reason why only study table is indicated is based on common sense. Study tables are smaller and easier to place. For a bed, once one goes into a bedroom, placement is limited to the bedroom door / attached toilet and windows. Beds are big. Actually the BED-head direction is indicated or shown. Just no NUMBERS shown. For example, if a good bed-head direction is favourable as shown. Not many would consider this plan where the bed-head is slanted as shown below... Would you do so? The concept: "Although one does not stay here, one should give responsible advice. Certainly not like this!" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
