Plan Feng Shui Bathroom

 Feng Shui Bathroom Plan. Don't you just love the sound of this word? SPA. Aaaaah. Peace. Serenity. Good feng shui. Wish I could make a good feng shui spa part of my everyday routine.

Morning jog, shower, breakfast, go to spa, take a break to deal with the "real world", and then back to the spa. That's the life! Till I get there, though, I have created quite a nice feng shui spa in my own bathroom. I feel happy when I'm in there. It's beautiful and serene. My own little feng shui spa retreat for early mornings and late nights.Feng Shui Bathroom Plan.


Being a feng shui consultant, I am also very aware of the importance of the bathroom design and location. Bathrooms do tend to leak energy, as well as easily accumulate lower vibrations, so the feng shui effort you put into re-creating a beautiful bathroom will send healing, calming feng shui energy throughout your home.

Water is a perfect natural relaxer and feng shui purifier, so combining it with the right feng shui elements and materials will create a soothing space for you.
Have visuals that give you pleasure/bring good feng shui energy.Feng Shui Bathroom Plan.


Have mirrors that will give you the pleasure of looking at yourself, as well as bring the presence of the feng shui water element.


Have several sources of lighting, including candles.


A tray will come handy if you like to have a drink while in the bath.


The right scents are an important choice, and you can choose from calming or invigorating, romantic or cleansing scents/oils. Be aware, though, that proper ventilation is a must for a healthy bathroom.


Keep the space warm.


Make it possible to listen to the music while in the bath.


Relax in your little spa retreat, refresh and rejuvenate.

Contemporary House Designed by J.Mayer H in Germany


If you love contemporary architecture and mid-century modern furniture then the “Dupli Casa” stunning hillside home in Germany just outside Ludwigsburg may capture your heart and sense of style. The architect firm of J.Mayer H started a complete makeover in 2005 from what looked like a nice but rather mundane existing home, and transformed it into literally a work of modern architectural beauty.




One feature that makes this home so visually appealing is the combination of straight horizontal lines and smooth rounded curves that seem to wrap around the landscape. I am glad to see the mid-century modern furniture that was chosen to minimally furnish the expansive rooms, and how well it compliments the feel of the home.

Bunga Tembusu House Plan by K2LD Architects in Singapore

Bunga Temubusu is located within a tree conservation area. A strategic organization of the space within the house was carried out to ensure the best spatial flow. K2LD was succses to design the elegant home with aim to respect the natural terrain on which the house sits. the house only lightly touches the ground. This also allows the user an elevated view of the beautiful lush surrounding. to mirror the natural surrondings,the tree trunk was reused and recycled as part of the external cladding of the house.

the designing of this home also paid attention to the Singapore’s climate without forgoing the visual and phenomenal transparency of the house. The big glass windows,high ceilings and double volume spaces and openings at all sides encourage ventilation.

the transition from the interior to the exterior spaces is seamless & effortlessly graceful as instead of definitive boundary. the different spaces are hinted at through the subtle changes in floor materials. the connection between each rooms was connected by large glass windows and doors on the ground level. it allows the functional spaces to merge with the natural surroundings which makes visual delight. material choosen are engaging the Japanese concept of “wabi-sabi” with rough cut stone, Corten-Steel and re-conditioned old teak.

Bundeena Housing, the natural bushland by Tony Owen NDM Architects









The project is for 15 houses set in natural bushland at Bundeena in the Royal National Park south of Sydney, Australia. The houses are on a sloping bushland site and all have great beach views.

The houses are light construction and are a cross form with an east-west timber clad cantilevered living element above for sun and a north south solid bedroom level below for views. This cross shade creates a large north facing terrace and cantilevered pool for each beach house.

Shower Design : Egg Shower by Arina Komarova





The egg-shaped shaped Cocoon Shower Stall that literally cocoons you once you shut all the glass slides. The usual spa features seen in such kinda stalls are included, but to spell them out: shower, bathtub, hydro massage (Jacuzzi) & mood lighting are there. The rain-showerhead is plum in the center of the ceiling, but I’d much rather use this for the hydra therapies!

Torres House designed by GLR Architecs, Mexico









Set high in the Sierra Madre mountain range, the Torres House seeks to establish an intimate contact with the natural environment in which it is located. Discreetly open towards the street, the house is accessed by crossing over a fountain from which a huge oak free emerges, impressive both for its size and its beauty.
Once on the porch, a grand mural like door constructed of marble, wood and steel welcomes the visitor.
Inside, the entry hall merges into an area of contrasting materials consisting of Santo Tomas marble and volcanic stone walls. From this area there is a visual continuity with the rest of the house and with the garden that was left in its natural state as a small oak forest.
In the living room, conceived almost as a glass box, one can experience the view to the Sierra Madre peaks in the distance and the garden near by. Owing to its location within the mountain, where winters can get really cold, there is a fireplace for the family to gather around in the evenings.
From the dining room and the media room, one can access the roof terrace and enjoy the splendid views of the Sierra Madre as well as of the city of Monterrey. Here is the musical background of the sounds of nature is in sharp contrast to the roar of the city below.
