• Basement Feng Shui: Light, Ventilation, Moisture Control & Layout Solutions — Full Basement vs Half Basement vs Sunken Courtyard

  The basement is the most feng shui–challenged space in any home — excess yin energy, poor light, weak ventilation, dampness, and mold. A complete guide to basement feng shui risk assessment (full basement vs half basement vs sunken courtyard), lighting solutions (light wells, light tubes, light-colored walls, color temperature strategy), the five-layer defense against moisture (exterior waterproofing, interior moisture-proof paint, floor moisture barrier, dehumidifier, daily habits), a banned-function list for underground spaces (what CAN go in a basement — home theater / gym / storage; what absolutely CANNOT — bedroom / study / kitchen / staff quarters), bagua-direction layout guidance (north: strengthen fire; south: active functions; east: plants + studio; west: storage), and detailed setup advice with budgets for basement home theaters, gyms, and storage rooms.

• Detached Villa Feng Shui — Sitting Direction, Courtyard Layout, Floor Functions, and Basement Handling — Four Core Pillars

• Entryway Feng Shui: Design Principles & Taboos for the First Qi Port — Dimensions, Partitions, Shoe Cabinets & Decor

  The entryway is the yangzhai's "first qi port" — qi entering through the front door slows down here, rotates, settles, and then distributes to every room. No entryway, or a poorly designed one, sends qi blasting straight into the living room or hallway — a draft becomes a sha, and the entire house's energy foundation wobbles. A complete guide to entryway size requirements (minimum width 120 cm, depth no less than 150 cm), five partition options (solid wall, half-wall + glass, screen, cabinet, curtain), correct shoe cabinet placement (must not face the front door, must not be too tall, must have closed doors), entryway lighting strategy (soft, non-glaring, 3000K–3500K, wall sconces over ceiling lights), and entryway decor taboos — mirrors, fierce beasts, dead branches, black walls, and more.

• Floor Feng Shui by Five Elements — HeTu Numbers & Ming Gua Matching Guide

  Choosing a floor isn't about lucky numbers. Floor five-element properties come from the HeTu diagram — 1 and 6 are Water, 2 and 7 are Fire, 3 and 8 are Wood, 4 and 9 are Metal, 5 and 0 are Earth. For floors above 10, just look at the last digit. The core rule: match your Ming Gua element to the floor element so the floor produces or harmonizes with you. Floor producing your Ming Gua is best (e.g. Wood Ming Gua on floor 1 or 6 → Water feeds Wood), same element is second-best, your Ming Gua producing the floor drains energy (acceptable), and floor overcoming your Ming Gua is worst (avoid). This guide covers the complete HeTu floor element calculation method, the four-tier Ming Gua-to-floor matching rules, plus high-rise vs low-rise tradeoffs (lower floors ground-connected, middle floors the golden zone, upper floors lack earth energy). Includes a full 12 Chinese zodiac floor element quick-reference table and five-element remedy solutions for already-purchased clashing floors.
