What feng shui is about the stairs

Feng Shui theory believes that the stairs are not only the place where the air is in the home, but also the place that is prone to accidents. If the location is wrong, it will cause damage to the home.

Feng Shui theory believes that the ideal position of the stairs is to stand against the wall. When the stairs are facing the door, in order to avoid the popularity and wealth upstairs from rushing out when the door is opened, a convex mirror can be placed opposite the steps and the door to reflect the energy back into the house. When setting up the stairs, it is absolutely necessary to avoid that the main position is the center of the house. Crossing the stairs in the center of the house is equivalent to dividing the house in two, which will lead to unfavorable situations such as multiple quarrels, discord between couples and even separation in the house.

The stairs are the passages of the house, which can make the air flow from the first floor to the second or third floor. The stairs are divided into internal air stairs and external air stairs. The internal air stairs are auspicious, and the external stairs are unlucky. The inner air staircase is opposite to the door. After entering the door, the person walks through the turn and goes up the stairs. When you enter the door of the external air staircase, you will see the stairs. The stairs and the door are directly opposite or opposite to each other, which is a symbol of bad luck.

Feng Shui theory believes that the singular number is good for the stairs and the even number is bad. The elegant semicircular staircase in the living room is the best design, because it moves in a spiral shape because of its vitality and auspiciousness. Ladder elevators are often used in modern shopping malls to transport guests, and there are no or fewer downstairs. This is also the meaning of Feng Shui, which symbolizes that the income is greater than the exit, and the wealth is rolling in. Similarly, the low ceiling and dim lighting on the stairs are not lucky. It makes people feel suffocated and disturbed...

Feng Shui theory believes that stairs are a channel for rapid movement of Qi, allowing Qi to move quickly from one level to another. When people move up and down the stairs, they will agitate Qi energy and move them quickly along the stairs to gather Qi and nourish Qi. The purpose is to achieve the goal, so the smaller the slope of the stairs, the better the effect. In order to avoid the upstairs fortune and luck rushing down, the indoor stairs should not be straight ladders as far as possible in terms of shape. It is best to make curved stairs (that is, stairs with resting platforms), spiral stairs or curved stairs. Of course, various other factors should be considered for the specific stairs, such as the decoration style of the room type and the owner's personal hobbies. From a practical and aesthetic point of view, these types of stairs also have their own advantages and disadvantages.

1. Spiral staircase (spiral staircase)

The advantage of this kind of stairs is that it saves space, and it makes people feel better when spiraling upwards, and it has a strong artistic quality.

In indoor applications, spiral ladders are best rotated by 270 degrees. If the angle of rotation is too small, there is no problem when going up the stairs. The stairs below are too steep and not too convenient to walk. The spiral ladder is beautiful but not too practical. If there are old people and children in the home, it will give people a feeling of insecurity. This kind of stairs is mostly used for small penthouses on the top floor, and less for large penthouses.

2. Stepladder

At present, this kind of stairs is widely used indoors, and its forms are more diverse. There are 90-degree stepladders, 360-degree stepladders, and even double stepladders. The advantage of this kind of stairs is that it is simple and easy to shape. The disadvantage is that like the curved ladder, a larger space is required.

3. Arc ladder

The arc ladder is a classic line connecting the upper and lower floors. It is beautiful and comfortable, without the rigidity of a stepladder or the insecurity of a spiral staircase. It is the most ideal staircase, but it must have enough space to reach it. For the best effect, it is the first choice for large duplex and independent villas.

From the perspective of the house as a whole, the most important thing in home feng shui is the flow of "qi". "Qi" means fresh air in the specific sense of the outdoors, but also "luck" and "fortune" in the abstract sense. The gate is usually regarded as a mouth for swallowing "breath" and exhaling "breath". It would not be appropriate for this "qi" hole to be facing the stairs. Because the stairs themselves are section by section, if the “qi” first encounters the stairs as soon as it enters the door, it will either cut off the “qi” all at once, or make the “qi” unable to flow smoothly and disturb the aura. When the gas field is chaotic, the environment in the room will naturally not be much better. It can be seen that you can see the stairs when you open the door. Going upstairs and going downstairs may not be so convenient, but the health of the owner of the house is unknowingly affected.

Therefore, when designing stairs, it is best to hide the stairs by the following methods: one is to turn the stairs facing the top of the door in one direction, for example, design the shape of the stairs into an arc, so that the stairs reverse the direction and back to the door; It is to hide the stairs, it is best to hide them behind the wall and clamp the stairs with two walls. This not only eliminates the worry of "cutting the aura", but also doubles the owner's sense of security when going up and down the stairs, as for the space under the stairs , It can be designed as a storage room or a toilet ; third, a screen is used to place a screen between the door and the stairs, so that the "qi" can enter the door along the screen.

In addition to the stairs should not be directly facing the gate, another taboo about stairs in home Feng Shui is to place them in the center of the house. Because the center of the house is called the "hole", which is the condensation point of "qi". It is generally believed that this is the soul of the whole house and the most noble place. The traditional saying of "holes" has accumulated to this day and has become the aesthetic habits of Chinese people, such as putting the middle first, centering on the center, and impartiality. If the stairs are placed in the center of the house, it would appear to be "noisy and overwhelming." The stairs are used to walk people up and down, making this place noisy and restless, not only wasting the precious area of ​​"holes", but also "trampled" The disrespect of the house will naturally not bring good luck to the owner of the house.

Plants or storage cabinets can be placed under the stairs, but not suitable for restaurants, kitchens, bedrooms, etc. This is because the air flow of the stairs is relatively fast, which easily affects the dining room, kitchen, bedroom and other spaces. For example, the sound of going up and down stairs is very unsuitable for a bedroom that needs to be quiet.
