Why Hire a Designer Educated in Interior Design Feng Shui
Believe it or not, there are slight differences between a traditional feng shui practitioner and an interior design feng shui practitioner. Predominantly the difference is that an interior design feng shui practitioner is educated as both a designer and in the art of feng shui, so they will only be able to tell you what you should do with a space to strengthen particular areas of your life. They will also be able to tell you the costs of different brands of carpeting, linoleum, drapes, lamps, furniture and so on so that you can save money as well as create an environment conducive to a happy life.
Why Not Use the Contractor?
If you are constructing your building from the ground up or remodeling then you will be dealing with contractors. However, with contractors it is not in their best interest in a financial sense to educate you in interior design feng shui. In fact they will most likely know little to nothing about such a thing.
Their bottom line is to get you to spend money, and the more the better. They don’t care if one of the areas on your feng shui bagua map is cut short or missing altogether. Their job is to put the time into implementing the materials you pick to make your home look the way you want it to. In other words you pick the materials and they do the work according to your specifications.
The Interior Design Feng Shui Practitioner
Hiring an interior design feng shui practitioner is the smart thing to do before you either construct your building, including picking out the land it’s going to sit on, or remodeling an existing building. The interior design feng shui professional can look at your building plans and the land the building is going to sit on, and can instruct you on corrections which can be made to bring the best possible harmony to the space.
If you are planning to remodel an existing building, the interior design feng shui practitioner can sit down with you and find out what your goals are and then what should be changed about the existing building so that the redesign will enhance your company’s goals rather than cause them to fail.
Interior design feng shui is not just for commercial buildings; if you are planning on buying or constructing your own home they can be just as beneficial. With a combination of a background in professional interior design and an understanding of the principals of feng shui, an interior design feng shui professional can represent the best of both worlds.
