The east wall corresponds to the "Qinglong", and the paintings with agarwood can calm people's hearts; The south wall symbolizes "Suzaku", and the beast painting is chosen to exorcise evil spirits; The western wall corresponds to the "white tiger", and fresh paintings should be hung to resolve it; The north wall represents "Xuanwu", and black and silver paintings enhance personal momentum. The choice of paintings in different spaces is also different. The drawing room is formal, the bedroom is warm and relaxed, and the restaurant can choose food paintings that stimulate appetite.
Color is as important as shape and should not be too dazzling or complicated. Red and yellow add vitality, indigo and purple are elegant and green and fresh. The height of hanging pictures should be moderate, avoiding being too high or too low. The combination of hanging pictures and geomantic omen needs to be careful so as not to upset the balance.
Generally speaking, the formula of hanging pictures on the east, west, north and south walls not only pays attention to the feng shui effect, but also emphasizes aesthetic enjoyment. Through careful selection and layout of paintings, not only the aesthetic feeling of space can be enhanced, but also fun and positive energy can be added to life.
