Which direction should the floor be laid, perpendicular to the doors and windows?
The laying direction of the floor is related to geomantic omen. Geomantic omen pays attention to a kind of balance and tries to avoid the conflict between various components in a space. As we all know, most of the wooden floors are long strips (some are spliced into squares by small strips and then vertically spliced, regardless of the splicing direction). After splicing, they form a straight line in the long side direction, while the short side jumps into a line. In this way, geomantic omen emphasizes that the straight line formed by the long side forms an anomaly. If the midpoint of the door is just opposite to the connecting seam above, it is a big taboo! So the general direction of the wooden floor is parallel to the door, that is, the long side you see when you walk into the room is horizontal.
