What is Feng Shui
Origin / 淵源由来
Feng 風 (Wind) and Shui 水 (Water)
In English, geomancy comes the closest: The art of placing or arranging buildings and sites auspiciously. Feng Shui originated from the eight trigrams in I-Ching, a Chinese classic oracle.
風水起源於中國古典神諭《易經》中的八卦，是中國傳統文化智慧和術數運作的結晶。憑藉屋宅所處位置坐向方位，以及和周遭山水形勢的關係，加上天命流年大運，趨吉避兇聚財旺丁，改變加強個人丶家族的運勢。
Implementation / 實際應用
Feng Shui is intangible.
Feng Shui is a comprehensive result of the interactive evolvement among a person's destiny, fortune, and the five elements.
Calculating in Feng Shui's term, the 9th cycle, counting from 2024 to 2044, we have the following recommendations from our Feng Shui Master.
Water in the north orientation reflects the wealth creation and accumulation. While the south mountain facing would encourage the growth of the family size. From the Feng Shui perspective, if prosperity is on top of the list, the north orientation is the most suitable location for a swimming pool or an outdoor fountain. If growing your family in size, having many kids and grandkids is the priority, then a house facing south with mountain in sight would be ideal.
風水是無形的。
風水是綜合天命人運五行輔剋的相互關係。
2024年至2044年是九運。北方適宜見水是發財水。南方適宜見山旺丁。
從風水角度來看，要想財源滾滾，北角將會是最適合游泳池或家庭式戶外噴水池的方位。如果盼幾個大胖小子嬌嬌女，則房屋選擇南面見山，人丁興旺。在風水學中，西北角代表「天宮」（Tien Guen），是房子主人所處的位置，這個位置應該盡量避免放置任何易燃/產熱的物品因為這會為房主帶來嚴重的財務、健康、人際關係以及安全問題。

Kitchen & Bathroom Renovation
Kitchen is truly the soul of the house.
It serves one of the most important roles in feeding us. At the same time, it is also the unofficial family meeting point, renovate your kitchen, make it even more attractive and family-centric.
Bathroom provides the most privacy when we need it or want it. Safety and accessibility are both #1 priority when considering renovating the bathroom. Especially when we have elders or mobility challenged loved ones as users. Would a curb-less shower be the choice? While you are at it, get some nice tiles to make your new bathroom shine.

如果是為停車用，我們需先考慮到在今日電動車成為主流的趨勢下，也許加配電源是不可忽略的，同時作為車庫配件，增加它的儲物實用性也是很合理的做法。
我們更可以有選擇，把這可觀的面積改建為居住的空間，一個獨立的生活單位，請和安居建築連絡，否則可惜了。
