Feng Shui Interior Design

• Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese philosophical way of living, where everything is harmonized with the environment.
• While Feng Shui covers much more than the home, learning to balance the elements of your home can help you to not just create beautiful spaces that you can enjoy, but also to create harmony, balance, and happiness in the careful and planned organization of spaces, shapes, colors, and focal points of your home.
• Interior design is about carefully controlling the look of your home, but Feng Shui takes this a step further, by allowing you to control how your home feels.
• More than 54% of people in the United States, the UK, and in Europe suffer from stress at one point in their lives, and a happy, balanced home can help to avoid this.
• Many people also use Feng Shui to improve the balance of a rental so that it becomes more like a home, to increase the appeal of a home up for sale, or to increase their own enjoyment while living in the home.
