The most satisfying bathroom Feng Shui layout follows the three rules of layout, location and decoration.
Due to the fixed pipeline design and placement of modern buildings, we often cannot choose the location of most residential bathrooms. Even so, we can still try to find some coping methods to avoid disasters. Make our lives more comfortable and smooth.
1. The best layout
The shape should be square, large rather than small
Water is the main element in the bathroom, and there is a lot of water. The room will definitely be humid than other rooms, which will lead to heavy airflow. Therefore, Feng Shui experts remind that the bathroom must be kept dry, pay attention to dehumidification and ventilation, and it is best to open higher windows to allow sufficient sunlight and air circulation. If it is airtight and poorly ventilated, it will be detrimental to your family. If there is no window in the bathroom, be sure to install an exhaust fan to remove the waste air. If there is enough space, the bathroom should be larger than small to avoid condensation of moisture, which will cause qi energy to stagnate and accumulate, thereby damaging wealth and health. In addition, the shape of the bathroom should be square and avoid triangles, arcs and deformities.
If it is a bathroom in a suite, it should also be noted that the floor cannot be higher than the floor of the bedroom, especially the position of the bathtub cannot give a feeling of being high above, because the water flows downward and is moisturizing for a long time. Living in a bedroom that is "moistened" by water is prone to endocrine system diseases.
2. The best location
Due east and southeast
The bathroom should not be located in the center of the house. The ideal location should be at the edge of the home. It is best to go due east and southeast. Because these two directions belong to wood, water can generate wood, and the water vapor in the bathroom can generate the five elements of wood qi in the east and southeast. At the same time, these two orientations are usually sunny parts of the house, helping to keep the room dry. But it should be noted that since the toilet flushing and bathing water drains move downward, which is opposite to the upward growth of wood, you can plant tall plants in the bathroom, or lay wooden floors and use bright green towels. with pads to increase upward wood energy.
Except for the directions due east and southeast, it is not suitable to build a bathroom. However, the position of most home bathrooms is fixed and difficult to move. In this case, items can be used to solve the problem. to mitigate negative impacts. Since earth controls water, the northeast and southwest are the most undesirable bathroom locations, which are very detrimental to wealth and health. If you cannot change the location, it is best to move the toilet and avoid placing it in these two directions in the room. In addition, you can place a white pottery bowl of sea salt in the northeast or southwest of the room, or place a heavy iron sculpture to use gold to consume soil and water to resolve it; the bathroom located in the north will cause water energy to flood and consume Energy and money, while the bathroom due south will lead to lack of blood and be easily involved in legal proceedings. Tall plants can be planted to consume water energy, and can also absorb moisture and produce fresh oxygen; due west and northwest In the bathroom, because metal generates water, the metal energy is exhausted by water energy, which will eventually lead to the consumption and loss of money. You can plant white flower plants to build up the metal energy, or prepare white flowers in the room, place round silver pots or Metal sculpture.
3. The best furnishings
Keep the toilet away from the door, simple and not cluttered
Clutter is a taboo in the bathroom, because it will make it difficult to move due to qi stagnation. Simple design and good ventilation are the best decorations. Feng Shui experts remind you that it is best to choose a material that is waterproof and easy to clean for the floor in the bathroom, because the flow of gas and energy will be affected by the material used, and different floor materials will also produce different effects. Solid wood floors, marble, granite and other hard, smooth surfaces accelerate the flow of energy and help create an exciting atmosphere. Synthetic materials used for flooring, including carpets, rugs and linoleums, should be avoided as the static electricity they carry has a negative impact on airflow.
Due to space constraints, the bathroom and toilet in most families are located in one room. In this case, in order to minimize the impact of drainage and flushing on the rest of the home, the toilet should be placed Place it at an appropriate distance from the bathroom door, preferably in the east or southeast of the bathroom. It should be noted that the direction of the toilet cannot be consistent with the direction of the door of the room. If possible, it is best to use a low wall, screen or A curtain separates the toilet. Try to keep the bathroom door closed at all times, especially the bathroom in a suite.
