The Feng Shui metaphor for landscape painting is that "the owner of the mountain and the small amount of water control the wealth." Hanging a landscape painting in the living room naturally has a beautiful meaning of a prosperous family. However, the hanging method of landscape paintings is more particular. Generally speaking, they are hung in the seating area of the whole house, that is, on the other side of the door. Landscape paintings with flat and round mountains should be hung behind the seats in the living room, which means "backing" and can increase the number of people hanging. A landscape painting with a waterfall means wealth, but the direction of the water flow should not be toward the house. If there are boats on the water, it can also symbolize smooth sailing for the family; while a landscape painting with the sun means prosperity, but it should be hung in the east of the living room. Noodles symbolize the rising sun in the east and the rising sun.

It can be said that the peony painting was born to become a living room Born to hang paintings. First, the peony picture is of great beauty, and the "king of flowers", which is "nationally beautiful and fragrant" and "most fragrant", represents her beauty and status. Secondly, peonies symbolize wealth and auspiciousness, and when paired with birds, they create an atmosphere of chirping birds and the fragrance of flowers. Third, in Feng Shui, peonies in full bloom are better than Buddha's hand in attracting wealth. They can bring good fortune to the family, attract wealth and ward off evil spirits, and can also attract nobles and helpful friends to help. It should be noted that it is best to choose the north or the south when placing peony pictures, because peonies belong to wood. The north is the "water" place in Kanyu, and wood grows in water and thrives; the south is the "fire" place, and taking wood to make fire means prosperity. Similarly, because the west is "gold" and metal overcomes wood, the peony picture must not be placed in the west.
