FINDING BALANCE
Rediscovering feng shui can bring harmony to your home and to you.
By Jack Romig
After a period late in the 1900s when it surfaced widely in Western popular culture, the discipline of feng shui has been perhaps less visible in recent
years. Given that it has become an abiding theme in the thinking of many interior designers, this Chinese import may be approaching a time of renewed
interest.
It’s pronounced “fung shway,” and it translates literally as “wind and water.” Said to examine the flow of energy or qi (that’s pronounced “chee”) through
the spaces people live in and use, feng shui is meant to provide balance and harmony, fostering prosperity, good health and overall well-being.
“There’s a resurgence coming,” said Kimberly Manning of Lower Macungie Township, a feng shui consultant who has steeped herself in the discipline since
learning of it years ago in a lecture at Harvard. After many years of study, she began using the method to assist clients in designing their homes, offices
and retail spaces.
“It arose in China in the Yellow River valley,” Manning said. “Originally it was a system for siting graves, finding the auspicious spot. It’s been
incorporated into design for homes, cities and so on.
It’s like acupuncture for space.”
An in-depth exploration of feng shui’s philosophical and historical roots is beyond the scope of this article. It is plain that, regardless of the objections
of skeptics, many designers of greater or lesser knowledge on the subject are interested in its tenets and potentials.
Manning says that her review of clients’ home spaces employs traditional methods and addresses many details – the footprint of the property and individual
rooms, color schemes, the arrangement of furniture, issues around landscaping. She recommends that anyone interested in using the practice in their home
begin by reading about it and conducting online research, then consulting an expert for specific advice.
