What is Feng Shui?
Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese art of understanding the relationship between people and their environment. It has evolved over more than 3,000 years through the careful observation of nature and the forces that shape our lives. By applying Feng Shui principles, we can adjust our surroundings to support health, harmony, and personal success. It is a practical tool to help you align your home with your goals and enhance your overall well-being.
What is Feng Shui design philosophy?
Feng Shui is not a design style—it is a philosophy. While interior design is about aesthetics and personal taste, Feng Shui is about energy flow and environmental harmony. You can apply Feng Shui to any home, in any design style, whether modern, traditional, or minimalist.
At its core, Feng Shui helps us assess how well our space supports us, both physically and energetically. Every home has Feng Shui—it’s just a question of how well it works for you.
I have heard there are many types of Feng Shui. Which one do you use?
Yes, there are different schools of Feng Shui, such as Eight Mansions, BTB (Black Hat), and Pyramid Feng Shui. Each has its own philosophy and techniques. At Jun Feng Shui, we practice Traditional (Classical) Chinese Feng Shui, which is grounded in time-tested methods such as Form School and Flying Star (Xuan Kong) Feng Shui.
Some methods may appear contradictory, but there is no absolute right or wrong—what matters most is the integrity of the approach and whether it resonates with you. We focus on the “big picture” first—like the land and surrounding environment—before refining interior elements. After all, if a home is built on unstable ground, does the color of the sofa really matter?
Do I need to buy Feng Shui objects?
No. Our approach does not rely on symbolic items like frogs, coins, or flutes. We focus on structure, flow, and alignment—elements that are meaningful and lasting.
Is Feng Shui for me?
Feng Shui is for anyone looking to improve their quality of life through mindful living. It is especially helpful if you:
-
Want to feel more at ease and supported in your home
-
Are planning a move, renovation, or new build
-
Are going through life transitions and want a fresh start
-
Feel “off” in your current space and can’t explain why
Feng Shui is not a magical fix. It's not meant to “solve” all of life’s problems overnight. It is a practical and holistic approach to creating a living environment that supports your energy, emotions, and goals over time.

What is the Feng Shui process for an empty lot?
Working with an empty lot offers both flexibility and complexity. Here’s a general outline of the Feng Shui process:
-
Site Evaluation: We assess the land’s external environment and choose a plot with strong Feng Shui potential.
-
General Orientation: We determine the optimal overall direction for the home based on geographic features.
-
Flying Star Analysis: Using the Xuan Kong method, we generate a geomantic chart for the site and identify the most favorable orientation.

Space Planning: We design a layout that aligns rooms, doors, and windows with energy flow.
