      • 1

        Try to position the sofa in the corner farthest away from the door and window.

      • 2

        Make sure the sofa is placed in clear view of the door.

      • 3

        Avoid having too much space between the wall and sofa. The wall is essential for providing security and protection.

      • 4

        Avoid placing the sofa in front of a window or directly opposite the door. Since energy flows between the door and window, do not place yourself and guests in its path.

      • 5

        Avoid having lights or beams directly above the sofa.

      • 6

        Use screens and partitions to help influence the flow of energy throughout the living room. When a screen is placed near a window, the flow of energy can be directed to another part of the room.

      I am that his article only spoke of how to arrange the couch, and did not address an explanation of Feng Shui so that one might apply it to their own situation.

      I like bright lively colors, like bright orange. I have a beautiful red leather L sectional sofa but unsure of what color walls. The floors are a dark wood and I dont want white walls. What colors can I use?r
