China’s catering culture has a long history and is very particular. It would be in vain to have delicious food without a good dining environment. As the saying goes, everything prospers at home. In addition to the overall layout of the home decoration, the Feng Shui layout of the restaurant plays a very important role in the home. The restaurant is a place where families eat and communicate. How much do you know about the Feng Shui of the restaurant?
Orientation
Generally speaking, the location of the restaurant has the following auspicious directions: east, southeast, south and north of the residence. The location of the restaurant must be chosen on a case-by-case basis.
The best restaurant location is in the southeast, because this direction has enough air and good light, and it is easier to create a warm dining atmosphere, which is good for your health. The dining room is also suitable to be located in the east part of the residence. This direction is the first place where the sun shines after it rises, giving people full of vitality and vitality. If you have breakfast in this direction, it can stimulate your family's positive and enterprising spirit.
The south of the house has plenty of sunlight, and the south is fire, which can make the family flourish like fire and become increasingly prosperous.
In spring and autumn, it is better for the restaurant to face the east, and in summer it is better to face the north. The eating area should be kept tidy to maintain food hygiene, while also creating a relaxed eating atmosphere and a pleasant environment.
The restaurant cannot face the front door or the back door. The door of the restaurant is not suitable for facing the main door of the residence and the door of the bathroom, and should be avoided as much as possible. Even if it cannot be avoided, it should be shielded by screens.
Layout
The best dining room design is a single room or a layout. However, most modern houses have a living room and a dining room. Therefore, you may see a dining table as soon as you enter the door. At this time, it is best to have a screen at an appropriate location between the living room and dining room.
The dining room, like other rooms, must have a square layout with no missing or protruding corners. In this way, not only will it be comfortable to sit up and down while eating, allowing people to eat happily while relaxing their body and mind, but it will also make it easier to receive good luck. If there are missing or protruding corners, it means a lack of luck or troublesome details. If there are sharp corners, it will be uncomfortable to sit on, which will affect your dining mood and even your appetite. Usually, the square space pattern implies an upright person. If paired with a square dining table or round chairs, the square and round combination will have a unique charm.
If the restaurant has sharp corners and is not very regular in shape, you can make up for it with some clever furnishings and decorations to make the restaurant regular. At the same time, avoid sitting under the beam. If it is unavoidable, you can use a red rope to hang two bamboo flutes on the beam. The bamboo flutes face each other at 45 degrees, with the mouth of the flute facing down. This can resolve the bad pattern. Another method is to install elevation lighting so that the light shines directly on the roof beams; you can also hang gourds under the beams to round off the tips.
Decoration
The layout of the restaurant should be simple and elegant, and it must not be cluttered or have too many items. Residents should not only pay attention to the layout and furnishings of the restaurant, but also pay attention to maintaining air circulation and cleanliness. Restaurants should use brightly colored decorations and bright lighting to increase the energy of the fire element and accumulate yang energy. Placing plants here can enhance yang energy and wealth, and can also add a lot of color to the restaurant.
The refrigerator is usually placed in the kitchen. If the refrigerator is installed in the restaurant, it is best to face north rather than south, because it can absorb the cold air from the north and avoid quarrels at home due to incompatibility between water and fire.
Arrange the restaurant into a space that balances yin and yang, but is slightly yang-y. In order to increase the yang energy, it is best not to place yin items such as ancestor portraits or antique furniture in the restaurant. Too much Yin energy is harmful to family luck. On the other hand, excessive yang energy can cause disharmony in the family.
