Feng Shui Office Tips To Keep In Mind

  • If you face any partitions or partial walls when entering your office, make sure you hang a mirror over that partition.
  • Incase the doors that face each other across a hallway are not properly aligned, place a mirror in front of each door.

Office Desk

  • Always keep the desk in a commanding position where you have direct view of the main door, a wall behind you for stability and a lovely view out the window.
  • Tables with rounded curves encourage creativity. A kidney-shaped desk tends to give a subliminal feeling of inner alignment. Remember, the shape of a desk can really affect your productivity and mood in the workplace.
  • If there are several desks then make sure they are not placed in rows or back to back. Place two tables in a way that they face the main door diagonally and lay the rest of the tables in a way that they face the center of the room diagonally.

Plants

Plants help you build your connection with the natural world. Chinese believe that the color green spurs creativity and helps you maintain the creative element in the office. Apart from this, it also helps the positive Chi flow in every corner that is neglected otherwise.

Light

There is no substitute for the natural daylight, so place your desk close to the window but do not place it directly in front of the window as that can cause exhaustion and eyestrain. You should also substitute fluorescent lights with other warm lights that don’t cause a glare. This will help improve your energy and mood dramatically.

Exterior Aspects Of An Office

The exteriors of any office building are extremely important and should also be designed according to Feng shui office.

  • The business premises should always be in a prosperous neighborhood.
  • Building entrance must look inviting rather than ordinary. Beautify the area to make it look attractive.

  • A corner is the best location for an office building.
  • Make use of Feng Shui bagua to design the interior layout.
