Feng shui taboos for foyer and entrance decoration effects

Influenced by the traditional Chinese house decoration Feng Shui, when people decorate and design their houses, they often first consider how to design the entrance hall. Nowadays, with the internationalization of fashion trends, many designers already like to consider combining Western factors with Chinese factors when decorating and designing entrance halls. So what are the specific techniques for doorway decoration design? Next, the editor will show you some feng shui taboos for doorway decoration. You can refer to them.

Feng Shui taboos in entrance hall decoration

The living room is where the whole family sits and gathers. It is the activity center of the family, so it should not be too exposed. If the living room is uncovered and lacks privacy, and every move of everyone in the home can be seen by outsiders outside the door, then there is a lack of security, and it is not a good sign from a Feng Shui perspective.

The entrance is the buffer zone between the door and the living room. It basically serves as a cover so that outsiders cannot observe the activities in the house from outside the door. This can solve the above problems. With the entrance guarded by the entrance, you will feel that the security in the living room is greatly increased, and at the same time, you are not afraid of having your privacy exposed.

In the United States and Canada, the living rooms, dining rooms, and living rooms of many residences do not face the main door. Instead, the door is either a staircase or a wall, thus eliminating the worry of wind and sand entering the house. In Eastern-style residential design, there is an entrance hall without a porch. If the door is blown by wind and sand, sitting in the living room will be deeply disturbed. If the door happens to face the northwest or true north and is often hit by the biting cold wind in winter, then a porch is even more needed for protection.

There are four basic principles for beautifying the entrance:

1. Transparency.

The partitions of the entrance should be mainly transparent, so transparent frosted glass is better than thicker wooden boards. Even if wooden boards must be used,

it should be brighter in color instead of wooden boards. Fancy wooden boards that are too dark in color tend to look clumsy.

2. Moderate.

The distance between entrances should not be too high or too low, but should be moderate. Generally, a height of two meters is most suitable; if the entrance space is too high, you will feel oppressive when you are in it; if it is too low, it will have no effect and is inappropriate in terms of Feng Shui and design.

3. Bright.

The entrance should be bright rather than dark, so you must think more about lighting. In addition to using more transparent frosted glass or glass tiles for the partitions, the color of the wooden floor, floor tiles or carpets should not be too dark. If there is no outdoor natural light, indoor lighting must be used to remedy the situation, such as installing a permanent light.

4. Neat.

The entrance should be kept clean and fresh. If there are too many clutter, it will not only make the entrance look messy, but also have a great impact on the feng shui of the house. A house with a messy, dark and depressing entrance will be far away from the home. Not far away.

Although they are all designed for entrance hall decoration, different factors and different decoration tones will cause the entire house to feel completely different. From a psychological point of view, the first feeling people receive is often the most lasting and the most profound impression. If you can decorate the entrance hall of your home to make people's eyes brighter, then when guests visit your home, they will feel that your house decoration design is very special and leave a deep impression on people.
