What to look out for in Commercial Feng Shui

When it comes to feng shui, there are a few key things to keep in mind in order to create a space that is both aesthetically pleasing and energetically balanced. In commercial settings, this is especially important, as the goal is often to create an inviting and welcoming space for customers or clients. Here are a few things to look out for when applying feng shui principles in a commercial setting.

1. The front door is the most important part of commercial feng shui – it should be well-lit and inviting

2. The reception area should be welcoming and comfortable, with plenty of seating

3. Offices should have good lighting and be organized to promote productivity

4. Conference rooms should be designed for collaboration, with a round table and comfortable chairs

5. Break rooms should be cheerful and relaxed, with healthy food options available

6. Bathrooms should be clean and well-stocked, with ample toilet paper and soap

The front door is the most important part of commercial feng shui – it should be well-lit and inviting

Commercial feng shui focuses on energy flow and balance in the business environment, and often begins with the front door. A warmly-lit and welcoming door allows positive vibes to readily enter the space, allowing success, prosperity, and health to follow. For a business to stay competitive in today’s market, having a feng shui-optimized front door is an important way to ensure energy flow into any space. An inviting front door demonstrates that a business values customers by helping them feel safe, secure, and important; it’s also one of the first steps toward creating good luck for the enterprise itself.

The reception area should be welcoming and comfortable, with plenty of seating

A warm, inviting, and comfortable reception area can help give a great first impression to any visitor. It’s important for any business or organization to create an atmosphere which is pleasant and makes people feel naturally at ease. Having plenty of seating in the reception area is essential since it welcomes a variety of people – from the occasional drop-in customer or guest, to the frequent employee or partner. Having plenty of chairs not only allows multiple people to wait in the reception area at once, but also allows them to sit comfortably while they wait. While being able to get comfortable might not make much of a different immediately, having that kind of convenience helps guarantee that your visitors will leave with a good impression.

Offices should have good lighting and be organized to promote productivity

Working in an office requires focus, attention to detail and creative problem solving. When the space is well-lit, organized and comfortable, it can help create an ideal environment for productivity. Furthermore, it can increase concentration and efficiency while performing tasks. Poor lighting and disorganized workspace, on the other hand, can lead to a difficult work environment; distracting the employee from doing their best work and draining their mental energy. Therefore, offices should strive to keep good lighting and stay organized to help staff to maximize their potential productivity.

Conference rooms should be designed for collaboration, with a round table and comfortable chairs

Conference rooms should be sets of comfortable and collaborative environments, encouraging people to share ideas. The way to do this best is with a round table for easy conversation and access. This seating encourages connection – which can sometimes be lost in larger boardrooms – by providing an inclusive atmosphere. Comfortable chairs should also be provided; not only will they keep participants’ energy levels up, but they will ensure that the focus is kept on the topics at hand, rather than fidgeting or shifting! When designed correctly, a conference room can create an effective platform for meaningful discussion.

Break rooms should be cheerful and relaxed, with healthy food options available

Break rooms should be cheerful, relaxed places in the workplace to boost productivity and morale. Having access to healthy food can further enhance employees’ experience during break time by providing them with contentment and energy throughout the day. Providing sugary snacks or caffeine-laden drinks for a quick fix will leave employees feeling worse than before their break as a sugar crash sets in. Instead, supplying healthy options like fruits, nuts, and other snack-size portions of granola bars will provide workers with that needed nutritional pick-me-up throughout the workday. Breakrooms don’t have to be too corporate – people naturally enjoy having something simple but pleasant to look at so adding pops of colour from plants or artwork is another way of making them not just another room at the office!

Bathrooms should be clean and well-stocked, with ample toilet paper and soap

Having access to a clean, well-stocked bathroom is something that many people take for granted. Unfortunately this is not always the case; many facilities have bathrooms that are unhygienic and insufficiently supplied to meet even the most basic needs of its patrons. A bathroom should be a place where people can feel comfortable and secure. This can be achieved by ensuring it has adequate and accessible supplies such as toilet paper and soap that both visitors and employees feel they can use without fear of running out or coming into contact with anything unsanitary. Everyone deserves access to a safe, pleasant restroom experience – having an abundance of readily available supplies ensures this is possible.

By following these feng shui tips for commercial spaces, you can create a more productive, inviting, and successful work environment. A well-designed office with good lighting, comfortable furniture, and plenty of healthy food options will help your employees to be their best selves. What changes will you make to your office space to improve feng shui?
