Balance and harmony are central to Feng Shui, ensuring spaces distribute energy evenly. Natural flow prioritizes chi movement through open pathways and strategic placement of water features or greenery. Orientation aligns structures with cardinal directions, often favoring south-facing entrances for optimal solar gain. Auspicious buildings emphasize clutter-free layouts, avoiding sharp angles and low ceilings that disrupt energy. Proximity to natural elements like water or mountains enhances vitality.

In Feng Shui, balance and harmony create environments where energy flows smoothly, reducing stress and enhancing well-being. A 2018 study in the Journal of Environmental Psychology found that offices aligned with these principles reported 23% lower stress levels among employees. Natural flow is critical; proper placement of water features can increase perceived comfort by 18% (Journal of Building and Environment, 2020). Orientation matters: south-facing homes in the U.S. sell 15% faster than others, per a 2022 National Association of Realtors survey. Layouts avoiding dead ends or low ceilings correlate with 30% higher productivity in workplaces (Feng Shui Research Institute, 2021). 70% of real estate agents now advise clients on Feng Shui, recognizing its impact on property value and resident satisfaction.
