The entrance is one of the most important components of the residential core, which can be said to be the throat of residential buildings, so the entrance is particularly important in home geomantic omen, and the setting of the entrance is very particular. Let's share the feng shui taboo of the porch.
1 porch feng shui taboo porch 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.
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.
Nine points to pay attention to when setting the entrance:
1, the interval of the living room entrance, the bottom should be solid to prevent leakage, and the top should be transparent. So you can use transparent frosted glass or hollow antique shelves.
2, the living room porch lighting should be bright and not dark, and most residential porches have no natural light source, so we must consider the lighting problem more. In addition to the interval should use more transparent frosted glass, most of the living room porch has no outdoor natural light, so indoor lighting should be used to remedy it, such as lighting.
3, the living room porch interval should not be too high or too low, to be moderate. Generally, the height of two meters is the most suitable, and the cabinet can be made below, which is about 88 cm high. You can use antique shelves or something. If the entrance of the living room is too high, there will be a sense of oppression in it. According to geomantic omen, if the entrance of the living room is set too high, it will completely block the air outside the house, thus cutting off the fresh air or vitality of the door, which is very undesirable. If it is too low, it will have no effect, and it is not suitable for both feng shui and practicality.
4. The entrance of the living room should be kept clean and fresh. If there are too many sundries piled around, it will not only make the living room look messy, but also have an impact on residential feng shui. The living room porch is messy and dark, and the whole room will appear crowded and depressed. You can put some feng shui items on it, such as Kirin.
5. The entrance is generally not close to the window. In the entrance, you can configure a large chandelier or ceiling lamp as the main light, plus some spotlights, wall lamps and fluorescent lamps. As an auxiliary light source. You can also use some small floor lamps with upward light for decoration and embellishment.
6. It is best to use neutral and warm colors on the wall of the porch, which can give people a soft and comfortable feeling, so that people can quickly forget the chaos of the external environment and feel the warmth of home.
7. The porch furniture should be placed on the principle of not affecting the owner's access. If the room area is too small, you can use furniture such as low cabinets and shoe cabinets to expand the storage space. You can also kill two birds with one stone by modifying furniture, for example, changing floor-standing furniture into hanging display racks, or making low cabinets into open hanging wardrobes, which increases practicality and saves space.
8. As a porch, while considering functionality, decoration can not be ignored. Even a small pot of daisies, a family portrait and an artistic landscape painting can bring extraordinary effects to the porch.
9, porch floor materials should have the characteristics of wear resistance, easy to clean. If you want to make the entrance area different from the living room, you can choose to lay floor tiles with different colors from the living room, or you can raise the floor of the entrance and make a small slope at the connection with the living room to highlight the special position of the entrance.
Covering function of porch
The living room is a place where a family, big or small, can sit together and get together every day. It is the activity center of the family and cannot be too exposed. If the living room is not covered and lacks privacy, everyone's every move at home will be unobstructed by outsiders. From the perspective of geomantic omen, it will be very insecure and unlucky.
The entrance is a buffer zone between the door and the living room, which basically plays a role of covering up. In addition, people can't casually observe indoor activities outside the door, which can solve the above problems. With the porch around, you will feel much safer in the living room and not afraid of privacy exposure.
In the United States and Canada, the living room, dining room and bedroom of many houses are not facing the front door, and the stairs or walls stand opposite the door, which can avoid the trouble of wind and sand entering the house. However, the design of the Oriental residence is to enter the hall, and there is no porch. If the door is blown away by the wind and sand, sitting in the living room will be deeply disturbed. If the gate just faces the northwest or north, and it is often attacked by cold wind in winter, it is even more necessary to cover the porch.
Houses close to the ground are often easily penetrated by strong winds and dust outside. After the entrance is set, it can prevent wind and dust, thus keeping the room warm and clean.

1. Permeable materials should not be used at the entrance.
When setting the entrance, avoid using materials with good permeability or too many hollowed-out ornaments, such as glass and Duobaoge. The entrance of this kind of material often makes the airflow detour, which is not ideal, especially when the door is facing the back door, window and so on. When the entrance is set with glass or Duobaoge, some airflow will still overflow.

Many people's doorways may be a little messy, because many things are not placed neatly, but are placed casually, such as the shoe cabinets must be placed neatly.

4. The entrance is actually transparent.
Under normal circumstances, the lower part of the entrance should be solid to avoid the leakage of wealth, and the upper part should be transparent to ensure the lighting of the entrance; It won't be completely covered by the porch. The upper layer is made of transparent material, and the lower layer is made of strong and heavy material.
5, it is not appropriate to put the shoe cabinet.
Nowadays, many people like to put their shoes there in order to maximize the use of space, with the upper floor as a porch and the lower floor as a shoe cabinet. In fact, this is very unlucky, because shoes come from all over the world, there will be some dirty air, and the porch is a place to cover up suffocation, so it is not suitable to combine the two.

There should be enough light at the entrance.
Light belongs to the sun, so the porch should be bright. If the entrance is dark due to objective factors, you can install a lamp in the entrance.
5. There can be no beams at the top of the entrance.
It is always bad for the beam to be topped, especially at the most important entrance. There is a saying that "the cross beam presses the entrance, and the money can't be turned back (that is, the borrowed money can't be collected)".

7. Cleanliness of the porch
