Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This book contains many examples of interesting and beautiful homes and interiors in Asia and the West, all designed along feng shui principles. These homes prove that ancient Chinese principles of feng shui are compatible with good architectural and interior design, and that the two may be engineered to support each other on many levels. The feng shui techniques covered include simple Eight Mansion feng shui, the placement of Water Dragons, interior and exterior furnishings and alignments and the calculation of intricate Flying Star charts.

Library Journal Review

Skinner, founder of Feng Shui for Modern Living magazine and the author of numerous books on feng shui, looks at homes and public buildings, primarily in Asia and London, that exemplify the principles of feng shui. The majority of the book contains photographs and descriptions of buildings: some, like Senta Saujana in Malaysia, have been designed using feng shui, while others, such as the Daily Express Building in London, were designed by architects who unwittingly incorporated feng shui into their design. For each, Skinner analyzes how the building was planned and provides floor plans to explain how the energy flows to the benefit of the inhabitants. Look to Sarah Rossbach's Interior Design with Feng Shui for practical advice; here you will find instead real-life examples of how feng shui has been employed and interpreted. For large interior design collections. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
