Auspicious Number of Steps for Landed Homes in Feng Shui

[msodi]

Hi Master

I am attaching my floor plan. Overall you can see there are 17 steps here, including one landing between 13th and 14th.

You can also see here that the 17th step while on the same level as upper floor, it forms part of the stairs.

could you please let me know if

1. Steps will be recounted after landing ie the 17th step becomes the 5th

2. If recounted there are only 12 steps to middle landing, is this unlucky? And what can be done about this?

 

thank you

1. Yes, the count is correct: there are 17 steps in the illustration.

2. A total of 17 steps is considered an auspicious number.

Landing size is 1050mm x 960mm

so there might be an extra step required on step 12

that means total will be 18 steps? Or will this just be recounted? 12+5?

Based on your original design, 17 steps are considered auspicious.  
Since there are now 18 steps, this is considered inauspicious.
