Sarah Rossbach, Feng-Shui-Beraterin aus New York, stellt in ihrem neuen Buch anhand von Beispielen, Fotos und Zeichnungen aus ihrer Praxis sehr anschaulich dar, wie die Regeln des Feng-Shui für den "Hausgebrauch" auch im Rahmen westlicher Wohnraumgestaltung von großer praktischer Bedeutung sein können.
Feng shui is an ancient Chinese practice based on principles from design, ecology, architecture, mysticism, and common sense. In this masterful work, Sarah Rossbach interprets the teachings of feng shui master Lin Yun for contemporary Westerners, offering the classic essentials on achieving harmony with one's environment. They apply not only to the layout of a building, but also to the arrangement of furniture within a room and to the best design of offices and public spaces -- in short, to any arrangement of man's environment. Learn the philosophy of this centuries-old art to help you achieve financial prosperity, good health, and happiness in today's complicated world.
Colors are key to the Chinese art of feng shui ("Fung Shway"), a system of placement whose simplicity and ecological good sense have struck such a chord recently in the West. Now Lin Yun and Sarah Rossbach, well known for their introduction to the West of feng shui, have written a fully illustrated guide to color application in all areas of life: home, garden, clothes, food, environment, health, and fortune-telling. In LIVING COLOR readers will find not only answers to the most common color questions-what color to pick for the new sofa? What color to wear on a job interview or to clinch an important deal? What colors for romance?-but also rules for a balanced and harmonious life based upon no less an authority than Tao-the way of all living things.
This work embodies the essence of feng shui (the Chinese art of placement), which is being encompassed in the West not only by individuals seeking harmony and good fortune, but by multinational companies. The authors explore its genesis in ancient China and analyze it at work in the world today. They offer practical, step-by-step advice on applying feng shui to one's surroundings, whether at home, in the garden or at the office. The illustrations feature classic examples from China and Hong Kong, modern examples by designers and architects in the West, calligraphy, and down-to-earth ideas for anyone to follow.
