Feng shui (pronounced fung shway) is an intuitive art. This ancient art prescribes lengthy and complex rules that may strike modern homeowners as quirky. For example, your home should not be built at the end of a dead-end road. Round pillars are better than square. Ceilings should be high and well-lit.
Yet even the most baffling practices have a basis in common sense. For example, feng shui principles warn that a kitchen door should not face the stove. The reason is that a person working at the stove may instinctively want to glance back at the door. This creates a feeling of unease, which can lead to accidents.
Despite the numerous complicated rules, feng shui adapts to many architectural styles. Indeed, the clean, uncluttered appearance may be your only clue that a home or office building was designed according to feng shui principles.
The beach life adapts well to the simplistic feng shui philosophy. KKC Fine Homes, and the architects we work with, are ready to help you implement this into your home and create the “ch’i” or “positive energy” which you desire.
