If you decide to build a house according to the rules of Feng Shui, then you need to start from the kitchen, because it is one of the most important parts of the house, and a woman often spends most of her time there. Feng Shui says that the kitchen represents prosperity and health. So, consider the basic principles for its arrangement.
Location
It is not always possible to influence the location of the premises, however, if you build your house, it is better when the kitchen is located in the rear part of it. If this is not possible, then at least make it so that when you enter the house you do not immediately stumble upon the kitchen. It is believed that this will help relieve you from problems with the digestive system. If your kitchen is still located in front of the house, it is not worth sounding the alarm. There are simple tricks: curtain the kitchen door. Also, on the diagonal of the kitchen, you can arrange something bright, for example, a picture, so that when you enter the house, your eyes first of all look at it.
Color palette
Avoid orange, red and pink flowers, as well as all their shades. It is believed that they contribute to the emergence of quarrels and disputes. So if you and your spouse often argue in the kitchen, look around: perhaps the cause is the color of the walls. Prefer light and cold hues - for example, blue, white or light green. The kitchen combines elements of Water and Fire, so the most successful option is white. By the way, stainless steel kitchen sets also contribute to the balance between these elements. As for lighting, fluorescent lamps should be abandoned - they constantly flicker, having a bad effect on the state of the nervous system and eyesight. However, their popularity is due to the brightness and cheapness. If you nevertheless decided that you cannot do without such light, then at least supplement it with an ordinary lamp with daylight.
Kitchen interior
The most important rule in the kitchen is that the person who prepares the food should have a dominant position. Thus, standing at the stove, you should be turned towards the door only face. However, in modern apartments to achieve such an arrangement is very difficult, so Feng Shui experts recommend hanging a mirror above the stove or something else with a reflective surface. The size of the mirror can be any, but the larger, the stronger the impact of the correction.
By the way, fine, if you are the owner of a spacious kitchen, especially with a wide doorway. In such circumstances, the hostess gets rid of the feeling of isolation from the rest living in the house. In this respect, studio apartments are ideal, in which there is no separation between the living room and kitchen. Due to this, the kitchen acquires the status of "center" of the house.
Feng Shui consultants are of the opinion that it is necessary to equip a kitchen according to the rule of a triangle - a refrigerator, a sink and a stove must together form the corners of this triangle, moreover, the required distance between them is one and a half to two meters. Such an arrangement will provide maximum convenience. Moreover, in this situation the elements of Water (sink and refrigerator) are separated from the elements of Fire (microwave and stove). You can isolate them using the elements of the Tree (plants or furniture).
