1. This has more to do with pure common sense 2. Here, how many of us during our childhood have open bookshelves just in-front of our study table? 3. This is to allow us to place our current semester books and reference materials like a dictionary and even some decorative items to brighten the work-area. 4. Contrast this with closed bookshelves. If so, whenever we need to access some of our "tools", we have to either open the doors or slide them which may be inconvenient as we may have to move something else to access them. 5. Thus, it is perfectly fine or OK to have open bookshelves at our work-interface = good ergonomics. 6. Therefore don't be too fearful of someone el…

Hi Cecil; For the main wooden door, is there any particular dimension like height or width that we need to watch out for?For the sliding or folding door at the patio to the living room, is the number of of door panels important? Reply: For the main door; in the past 1 room / 3 bedrooms and 4 & 5 bedrooms HDB's around the 1970's to early 1980's have door openings at 32". And plus the side frames it is a total of 35" If you want to tailor made a single door (or single with extra panel) then since the extra panel is rarely opened; the big door should range between 32" up to max of 35". Very hard to include the door frame if wood frame is used. (HDB usually use the thinne…

For some, it can be quite a nightmare taking compass readings as most built up areas have lots of embedded re-inforced steel bars - that will often cause the readings to differ greatly from various locations within a premises. Nowadays, especially in Singapore, which is close to the equator, the True north and magnetic north is the closest; one may consider using a tool like electronic maps from sites like: onemap.sg which uses the official govt. survey maps. Another useful tool is to purchase a good quality protractor. As all street maps both paper version and electronic automatically shows a layout in relation to North-South, try to look for the sitemap of the building.…

Under Symbolism in Feng Shui; it is not ideal for kitchen appliances like e.g. a toaster oven or an oven or kitchen knifes directly face an open bedroom door.

Can we use vertical bar window grilles? This has more to do with common sense then Feng Shui. For example, if one's grilles are casement windows; it does not matter that much if the window grille bars are horizontal or vertical. However, if the one has sliding windows; then it makes more sense if the window grille bars are horizontal. Why? Pure common sense. In order to open or close sliding windows, the most efficent grilles are those that are horizontal bars. This allows for swift motion to slide the windows unobstructed with horizontal grilles. But if vertical grilles were to be installed, one may have to frequently remove the hands and place it into one or more vertic…

This is not Feng Shui. But because some say it is inauspicious and cannotdraw a line between what is Feng Shui andsymbolism in Chinese culture. Under symbolism in Chinese culture, it is best not to have a straight row of three (3) pendant lights especially at the dining table. These lights are often found installed above a dining table and/or bar counter and/or breakfast niche.

In my opinion, this has more to do with common sense. Please see sample photo. The test is whether a person or child leaning on the edge of a table can topple it down? Thus this has more to do with the centre of gravity of the legs of the table and how stable the table top is.

1.IsBlock 508B stack #66 considered as a block at a "T-junction". 2. Yes, technically, this Block 508B is at a "T-junction". 3.

Thus this has more to do with cow sense then Feng Shui.
