Raine at Home: Fung Shui

Last post I have about EFFECTIVE ROOM ARRANGEMENT tackles mainly the LIVING ROOM, DINING ROOM and the BATHROOM.

Now to start 2013 let's have a room makeover concentrating the MASTER BEDROOM.

The most used room designs for relaxation, that is why it should have a PEACEFUL and CALMING ATMOSPHERE.

The IDEAL MASTER BEDROOM should be comfortable and not to big for you to stay.

NOTE: The bed should be stable, without built-in drawers and other optional features. If the built-in drawers do exist, only linen should be stored there, but certainly not clothes, shoes, family photo archives.

Chinese people follow some rituals in positioning their bed rooms, called FUNG SHUI RULES:

BED SHOULD NOT BE LOCATED DIRECTLY OPPOSITE THE ENTRANCE DOOR. Or you can make the bed place slightly diagonally in order to see who enters the room.
AVOID SLEEPING WITH YOUR LEGS or HEAD directly at the window.
DO NOT USE BEDROOM FURNITURE with a SHARP CORNERS.
CLOSET SHOULD BE PROPORTIONAL TO THE SIZE OF THE BEDROOM. If you are in need of a large closet use a closet with a frosted glass inserts.
MIRROR creates the condition of unrest and discomfort while sleeping. That is why bed should not be facing in the area were mirrors are located.

And another thing to remember, it is not good to put TV's, computer, and telephones in your MASTER BEDROOM. It should be put in the other room.
