🔦 Spotlight: Feng Shui – The Art of Balancing Space, Energy, and Intention

Rooted in ancient Chinese philosophy, Feng Shui — meaning “wind and water” — explores how unseen forces shape visible outcomes. It reflects the belief that harmony in one’s environment fosters balance in life, health, and success.

Once used to locate sacred sites and plan cities, Feng Shui today influences architecture, interior design, and even urban development worldwide. From Hong Kong’s skyline to modern office layouts, it continues to shape how people think about energy, movement, and well-being in physical spaces.
