Sarah Rossbach & Master Lin Yun
A work which embodies the essence of feng shui (the Chinese art of placement), which is being encompassed in the West not only by individuals seeking harmony and good fortune, but by multinational companies. The authors explore its genesis in ancient China and analyze it at work in the world today. Feng Shui originated in ancient China, as farmers sought to survive through finding harmony with nature, but in recent years it has moved to the West and entered the mainstream of the modern design world. Internationally renowned interior designers, architects, and landscapers are adopting feng shui precepts in their work, and stories abound of the remarkable, positive impact feng shui has had on people's lives. This informed and informative book offers a clear understanding of the historical roots of feng shui, its fundamental principles, and shows how they can be used practically today. With photographs of both classic and modern examples of feng shui in practice, Feng Shui Design offers inspiration and down-to-earth ideas for anyone to follow in considering home, garden, or office designs. Lavishly illustrated with color photographs, drawings, charts, plans, and original calligraphy by Master Lin Yun, Feng Shui Design will be required reading for designers, architects, and anyone wanting to explore this ancient art.
