According to the principles of Feng Shui, the arrangement of furniture, the use of colors, and decorations can all contribute to the flow of positive energy. For example, placing furniture in a way that allows chi, or life energy, to flow freely can help reduce stress and create a sense of calm. Colors also play an important role: light, natural colors have a calming effect, while too dark or bright colors can be disturbing.
According to Feng Shui, order and cleanliness are also of fundamental importance. Cluttered, crowded spaces hinder the flow of energy, so it is advisable to regularly tidy up and get rid of unnecessary items. A clean, organized environment is not only more aesthetically pleasing but also has a positive effect on our mental state.
Natural elements such as plants, water, and wood are also important in Feng Shui. Plants bring freshness and life to the space, while water has a calming effect. Placing a small fountain or aquarium in the home can help create a sense of tranquility. Wooden elements, such as furniture or decorative items, radiate warmth and naturalness.
Applying Feng Shui does not require major transformations or expensive investments. Even a few small changes can have a significant impact on the atmosphere of the apartment and the well-being of its inhabitants. For example, keeping the area around the front door tidy and clean can help the flow of positive energy. In the bedroom, it is advisable to avoid too many electronic devices, as they can interfere with sleep and rest.
According to the principles of Feng Shui, the placement of mirrors is also important. Mirrors reflect energy, so it is advisable to place them in locations where they have a positive effect. For example, placing a mirror in the dining room can symbolize abundance and wealth, while a mirror in the bedroom can interfere with sleep.
In our next blog post, we will provide detailed information on how to apply the principles of Feng Shui in your home to create a more harmonious and balanced living space. Stay with us and discover the world of Feng Shui!
Get Rid of Unnecessary Items!
Look around your rooms, and you will be surprised at how many unnecessary things you keep at home. Keep only the items you truly love or that have special meaning to you. Gather the rest and donate or discard them. After that, only buy things for your home that you really need.
Did you know that hiding unnecessary items under the bed or storing old clothes in bags at the back of the closet makes the space more organized? While this may show order on the surface, in reality, it is just an illusion, and the accumulated, unnecessary items can start bad energies.
Maintaining order and cleanliness is not only important from an aesthetic point of view but also has a positive effect on our mental state. Removing unnecessary items helps make our home more peaceful and harmonious. Donating items not only makes our living space more organized but also helps others who may need these items.
After getting rid of unnecessary items, it is worth considering what items you really need. Before buying, always ask yourself: "Do I really need this?" If the answer is no, then do not buy it. This helps avoid accumulating unnecessary items and keeps your home organized.
Storage solutions also play an important role in maintaining order. Use practical storage options that help organize your items. Under-bed storage, closet organizers, and door-hanging storage can all be useful. These solutions not only save space but also help you easily find what you need.
Remember that maintaining order and cleanliness requires continuous attention. Regularly review your items and get rid of those you no longer need. This way, your home will always remain organized and harmonious, and you will feel better in it.
In summary, removing unnecessary items and using practical storage solutions help keep your home organized and harmonious. Keep only the items that are truly important to you, and regularly review your items to get rid of unnecessary ones. This way, your home will always be calm and balanced, and you will feel better in it.
Let in Light and Air!
To maintain constant good energy throughout the house, it is important for air and light to move continuously. Open windows frequently to allow fresh air to flow in, and only use shades or dark curtains when absolutely necessary. Always keep windows, mirrors, and other glass surfaces clean to allow light to flow in unobstructed. Place a mirror in a darker corner to reflect light and brighten the space.
Fresh air and natural light not only help the flow of good energy but also have a positive effect on our well-being. Regular ventilation brings freshness to the apartment and helps remove accumulated pollutants and unpleasant odors. Clean windows and mirrors are not only more aesthetically pleasing but also let in more natural light, improving mood and productivity.
Using dark curtains and shades is only recommended when truly necessary, such as in the bedroom during sleep. During the day, however, it is advisable to let in as much natural light as possible to make the rooms bright and welcoming. Natural light not only improves our mood but also promotes the growth of plants, which also contribute to maintaining good energy.
Strategically placing mirrors can also help reflect light and brighten the space. A well-placed mirror not only makes the space appear larger but also effectively reflects light, making the room brighter and more welcoming. Mirrors can be particularly useful in darker corners or places with little natural light.
In summary, to maintain good energy, it is important for air and light to move continuously throughout the house. Open windows frequently, keep glass surfaces clean, and only use shades when absolutely necessary. Place mirrors strategically to reflect light and brighten the space. These simple steps not only help the flow of good energy but also have a positive effect on our well-being, making our home more welcoming and harmonious.

Bring Nature into Your Home!
According to Feng Shui, the flow and cleanliness of air are of fundamental importance. Fresh, clean air promotes the flow of positive energy, contributing to the creation of a harmonious and balanced living space. Houseplants play a key role in this process, as they naturally filter the air, removing pollutants and improving air quality. Healthy plants not only create a cleaner environment but also attract positive energy with their vitality.
The presence of houseplants in the apartment has many benefits. They not only make the space more attractive from an aesthetic point of view but also contribute to air purification. During photosynthesis, plants produce oxygen while removing carbon dioxide and other harmful substances from the air. This ensures fresh and clean air, which is especially important in enclosed spaces where air quality can quickly deteriorate.
Healthy plants are particularly important from a Feng Shui perspective due to their vitality. Vibrant, green plants radiate positive energy, contributing to the harmonious atmosphere of the apartment. Caring for, watering, and nurturing plants also has a positive effect on the residents' mental state, as tending to plants can be a calming and stress-relieving activity.
According to Feng Shui, the placement of plants also plays an important role in the flow of positive energy. It is advisable to place plants in locations where air flow is ensured, such as near windows or ventilation openings. When placing plants, ensure they do not obstruct free movement and air flow but rather promote it.
Different types of plants can have different effects on the energy of the apartment. For example, bamboo is believed to bring luck and prosperity according to Feng Shui, while a money tree symbolizes wealth and abundance. Flowering plants, such as lilies or orchids, enhance the atmosphere of the apartment with their beauty and fragrance, radiating positive energy.
In summary, from a Feng Shui perspective, the flow and cleanliness of air are of fundamental importance. Houseplants naturally filter the air, creating a healthier and cleaner environment. Healthy plants attract positive energy with their vitality, contributing to the creation of a harmonious and balanced living space. Caring for and placing plants also plays an important role in applying the principles of Feng Shui, so it is worth paying attention to them in our homes.
Influence Your Life with the Power of Colors!
Colors play an extremely important role in feng shui, as they can influence our mood, energy, and overall well-being. Colors can appear not only on the walls but also on the upholstery of furniture, accessories, and decorative elements, giving us numerous opportunities to make our home more harmonious and balanced.
According to feng shui, each color has its own meaning and effect. For example, the color red symbolizes energy and passion, making it ideal for rooms where activity and dynamism are needed, such as the living room or dining room. In contrast, blue radiates calm and peace, making it an excellent choice for the bedroom or bathroom, where relaxation and rest are the goals.
Green represents nature and growth, bringing freshness and renewal to our home. Green looks particularly good in the study or kitchen, where inspiration and creativity are needed. Yellow radiates happiness and optimism, making it a great choice for the children's room or living room, where cheerfulness and positive energy are the goals.
The use of colors in feng shui is not limited to the walls. The upholstery of furniture, pillows, rugs, and curtains all contribute to the atmosphere of the room. For example, a red sofa or a blue rug can instantly change the energy and mood of the room. Accessories such as vases, pictures, and candles also play an important role in the harmonious arrangement of colors.
In feng shui, the combination of colors is also important. To create balance, it is worth choosing colors that complement each other and create a harmonious ensemble. For example, the combination of blue and green can have a calming effect, while the combination of red and yellow radiates an energetic and cheerful atmosphere.
The use of colors in feng shui is not only important from an aesthetic point of view but also has a positive impact on the well-being of the residents. Choosing and arranging the right colors can help make our home more harmonious and balanced, contributing to the happiness and well-being of the residents.
In summary, colors play an extremely important role in feng shui and can influence our lives in many ways. The walls, upholstery of furniture, and accessories all contribute to the atmosphere and energy of the room. Choosing and arranging the right colors harmoniously can help make our home calmer and more balanced, positively affecting the well-being of the residents.

ENTRANCE DOOR, HALLWAY
According to the principles of feng shui, the entrance door and hallway are of paramount importance, as these are the first things we see when we arrive home and when our guests arrive. Therefore, it is especially important that the entrance door and its surroundings are always tidy, clean, and inviting. A tidy and cozy entrance radiates positive energy, which affects the entire apartment.
The color of the entrance door also plays a significant role in feng shui. When choosing the color of the door, the direction it faces should be taken into account. If the door faces north, it is recommended to use the colors of the fire element, such as red, orange, yellow, purple, or pink. These colors radiate energy and warmth, helping the positive energy to flow in. If the door faces south, the colors of the water element, such as blue, green, and black, are the most suitable. These colors bring calm and harmony to the space.
In the hallway, it is important not to place a mirror directly opposite the entrance door, as this can deflect good energies. According to feng shui, a shiny and clean entrance attracts money and prosperity into the home. Therefore, it is worth regularly cleaning the door and its surroundings and ensuring that it is always tidy.
The placement of shoes also plays an important role in feng shui. Always take off your shoes outside to leave the dirt and negative energies outside. It is worth placing a practical shoe rack in the hallway where we can store the shoes neatly. This is not only aesthetically pleasing but also promotes the flow of good energy.
The decoration of the hallway can also contribute to maintaining positive energy. For example, a beautiful plant or a welcoming sign can make the space more friendly. Lighting also plays an important role: a well-lit hallway creates a more inviting and safer feeling.
In summary, according to feng shui, the entrance door and hallway are of paramount importance, greatly influencing the energy of our home. A tidy and clean entrance, the use of appropriate colors, consideration of mirror placement, and the neatness of shoes all contribute to the flow of positive energy. These simple steps can help make our home more harmonious and balanced, and our guests will be happy to return.

LIVING ROOM
The living room is the heart of the home, where daily life takes place. Therefore, it is essential that the space radiates harmony and tranquility. Plants are a great help in this, especially those with round leaves, which bring luck and emit positive energy. To balance the space, you can use plants, wall hangings, decorative elements, or even a screen to create harmony.
You can make the living room more friendly with family photos and lovely pictures. Although the ancient Chinese did not deal with the placement of the television, according to modern feng shui, it is worth placing it in the northern corner for your career. If you want to increase your recognition and fame, the southern orientation is appropriate.
When you are not using the TV, it is worth covering it, as although a mirror can look good in the living room, the TV is just a blurry imitation of it and can generate negative energies. If you have a fireplace, make sure there is no aquarium next to it, as the energies of water and fire can cause conflicts.

BEDROOM
The bedroom is a sanctuary for rest and rejuvenation, so it is especially important to have as few electrical devices as possible. The ideal bedroom has neither a computer nor a television, making it truly a place of peace and relaxation. The presence of electrical devices can disturb rest and negatively affect the quality of sleep.
When furnishing the bedroom, make sure that the mirror is not placed opposite the bed. The mirror can reflect energies, which can disrupt the harmony and tranquility of the room. If the mirror is opposite the bed, our sleep can be more restless, as the images and lights reflected in the mirror can be disturbing.
When designing the bedroom, it is worth prioritizing natural materials and colors, which have a calming effect. Soft textiles, warm lights, and natural decorations all contribute to creating a relaxing environment. Plants can also have a positive effect, as they improve air quality and have a calming effect.
Overall, the most important aspect when furnishing the bedroom is that the space serves rest and rejuvenation. Minimizing electrical devices, properly placing the mirror, and using natural materials all contribute to making the bedroom truly an island of tranquility.

BATHROOM
When designing the bathroom, it is especially important to create a calm and relaxing environment, as this helps with relaxation after a long, hard day. The bathroom should be a place of peace and relaxation where we can completely unwind. For this, the right accessories are essential, contributing to relaxation.
One of the most important accessories is a candle, which helps create a relaxing atmosphere with its warm light and soothing effect. In addition to candles, scents also play a significant role in creating the bathroom's ambiance. Essential oils, air fresheners, or bubble baths all contribute to making the bathroom truly an island of relaxation. When choosing scents, it is worth selecting those with a calming effect, such as lavender or chamomile.
When furnishing the bathroom, make sure that the colors and materials also radiate tranquility. Natural materials like wood or stone, as well as soft, pastel colors, all contribute to creating a relaxing environment. Soft towels and comfortable bath mats also increase the sense of comfort.
Overall, the most important aspect when designing the bathroom is that the space serves rest and relaxation. The right accessories, such as candles and scents, as well as calming colors and materials, all contribute to making the bathroom truly a place of peace and relaxation.
CHILDREN'S ROOM
Children love bright and cheerful colors, but it is important not to overdo it, as too many colors can be overwhelming. Bright colors stimulate creativity and playfulness, but if there are too many, they can cause restlessness. Therefore, it is worth finding a balance in the use of colors so that the room is friendly and inspiring but not overcrowded.
It is important for children to learn how to keep their room tidy. This not only ensures a more pleasant atmosphere in the room but also becomes a useful skill for them in the long run. Tidying up helps children become more responsible and better manage their own environment. A tidy room creates a calmer and more harmonious atmosphere, where children can concentrate and relax better.
Children's drawings, paintings, and other crafts should not be missing from the room. These personal creations make the children's room truly unique and homely. Homemade decorations are not only the room's ornaments but also sources of pride for the children, encouraging them to create more and be creative.
Overall, when designing the children's room, it is important that the colors and decorations are harmonious, and teaching tidiness will have a positive long-term impact on the children's lives. The presence of personal creations creates a unique and homely atmosphere where children feel comfortable.

Feng shui, the ancient Chinese art of spatial arrangement, plays an important role in interior design, as its goal is to create harmony and balance in our home. Applying its principles helps ensure that the energies flowing in our home, or chi, have a positive impact on our lives.
One of the most important aspects of feng shui is the placement of furniture and objects. Proper arrangement promotes free energy flow, which improves the well-being and quality of life of the residents. For example, the placement of the bed in the bedroom can affect the quality of sleep, while the arrangement of furniture in the living room can impact family relationships and guest reception.
The choice of colors and materials is also important in feng shui. Different colors and materials carry different energies that affect mood and emotional state. The use of natural materials and harmonious colors has a calming effect, while bright colors stimulate creativity and activity.
Applying feng shui in interior design is not only beneficial from an aesthetic point of view but also contributes to the physical and mental well-being of the residents. The harmony and balance prevailing in our home have a positive impact on all areas of our lives, including health, relationships, and career. Therefore, it is worth considering the basic principles of feng shui during interior design.
