thesimfarm 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 When i first started renovating my place, there's this FSM told me not advisable to do open concept for my kitchen, cos after knocking down the wall, the stove will be directly facing my living room full height window.He also mention that it's good that stove can't be seen so directly when people enter the house. Is it true? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
latitude 0 Report post Posted January 4, 2008 mmm... mine is open concept too. once enter the house, see the island, behind island is stove. FSM ask me to install stainless steel or glass backing to reflect more fire. I guess I need more fire?? my stove is not facing the window though.FSM also told me to keep all sharp objects (ie. knife, scissors). they must not be seen when ppl enter the house.

va|er1e 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2008 I read somewhere that the stove should'nt be seen when people enter the house... the stove placement in a house is very important and it represent the women's health or something like that. When you engage a FSM, it seems like they will tell you where to place the bed and stove... the stove should be place against a solid wall... if it is open concept, usually they will advise them to do a low backing glass behind to replace the solid wall.

He might be able to suggest some alteration to suit your requirement and yet take care of the fengshui consideration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
