The porch geomantic omen may be a relatively neglected one in residential feng shui. But don't look yet. It is the first level for houses to welcome wealth and turn evil into evil.
Next, let's take a closer look at what porch feng shui is.
Take you to a comprehensive understanding of porch feng shui
First, what is a porch?
According to the explanation in Ci Hai, the porch refers to the entrance of Buddhism, and later refers to the outer door of the main hall. Now, after a long-term agreement, the porch refers to an area at the door.
There are big porches in front of traditional houses in China, but the residential areas in modern cities are generally narrow. If you set up the traditional big porch, you will obviously feel that the space is cramped and it is difficult to move. Therefore, the compromise is to use a glass screen as a partition, which can not only prevent the outside air from rushing directly into the living room from the gate, but also make the narrow porch not too tight.
The entrance is one of the most important components of the residential core, which can be said to be the throat area of residential buildings. The feeling given to tourists is equivalent to the first impression between people. According to psychological analysis, the first impression usually occurs in the first seven seconds, which is basically the same as entering the house to check the entrance and adjust the breath. In the west, the porch represents the family's money and has a decisive influence on the good or bad of the house.
The entrance is a buffer zone that enters the living room from the gate, so that participants can calm down and concentrate. At the same time, it is the only way to introduce air into the house, so its layout can directly affect the feng shui of the house.
Second, why should we set up a porch?
The first purpose of setting the porch is to increase the privacy of the owner. In order to prevent guests from seeing the whole room as soon as they enter the door, wood or glass is used as a partition at the entrance to draw an area for visual shielding. The second is to play a decorative role. Pushing open the door, the first thing you see is the porch, which is the initial feeling of guests entering this family from the complicated outside world. It can be said that the porch design is the condensation of the designer's overall design ideas, which plays a finishing touch role in room decoration and can make guests feel bright when they enter the door. Third, it is convenient for guests to take off their clothes, change shoes and hang their hats. The shoe cabinet, coat rack and coat mirror are best set in the porch, and the shoe cabinet can be hidden. The shape of the coat rack and coat mirror should be beautiful and generous, which should be in harmony with the whole porch style.
Third, modern porch decoration
Understand the design and form of the porch before decoration. Judging from the relationship between the porch and the house, porch decoration can be divided into the following categories:
1, independence: generally, the entrance is long and narrow, and the entrance is the only way to enter the hall. You can choose a variety of decoration forms for processing.
2. Adjoining type: it is connected with the hall, and there is no obvious independent area. It can make its form unique or blend with other room styles.
3. Inclusion: The foyer is included in the foyer. A little decoration will become the highlight of the whole hall, which can not only separate but also increase the decorative effect of the space. It can be seen that the design of the porch should be based on the different room types and forms. It can be round or right-angled, and some room entrances can also be designed as porch corridors. Styles include wood, glass, screen, hollowing out, etc.
Generally speaking, because the area of the porch is generally small, the cost will not be too high. So the host can spend more time decorating the porch, which can achieve the ideal effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
Fourth, it is not suitable for the porch of the house.
1, small apartment, setting the entrance will only reduce the residential space and make it more crowded. In residential geomantic omen, the space in the house is too small, which is not conducive to the family's luck.
2. The distance between the gate and the wall is too small, because the entrance is placed, which affects the inflow of air and directly affects the wealth entering the home.
3, the door is on the "ghost gate line", and it is not appropriate to set up a porch in the southwest.
4. Don't set a porch on your birthday girl.
