What does the day-to-day work of feng shui consultants look like?

Feng Shui consultants usually work on a freelance basis, often in another profession into which they can integrate Feng Shui as a supplement.

The Feng Shui consultation begins with an analysis of the overall situation, e.g. the geological environment of a house, the position of a rented apartment within a housing estate and the recording of all rooms belonging to the house / apartment / business. The detailed analysis of the energy flows, the strengths and weaknesses of the floor plan and possible problem areas begins with the creation of the floor plan.
The characteristics of the people who live there are included in the detailed development of possible solutions. The aim of the final design proposals is to create an interior design that optimally supports all residents in their well-being, health and objectives.

In the actual implementation, structural measures such as moving a room door may be necessary if possible. Otherwise, the design elements of color, materials, shapes and spatial arrangement are used.

We recommend that you allow at least 4-6 hours per week as a precaution.
