ivory 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2007 What a dilemma! Maybe it's best to follow the FSM. I am not a follower but I can imagine the pyschological effect it will have on you in future. For the sake of a peace of mind, maybe you want to see if you can find a balance between aesthetics and Fengshui.All the best! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I m thinking of installing ceiling fan..my inital idea was to do 2 tower fan in my living room but i heard ceiling fan is much better leh..i not installing air con in living room.. Ceiling fans confirm better den tower fan anytime.... according to the sales ppl and also known in the market, tower fans are meant for air circulation in air con rooms only... it is not so effective actually... and also, it is not easy to clean... I have ceiling fan in my living room and bedroom and it is serving me well... Make sure the the correct size... too small no wind... too huge looks out of place!

HiroX 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2007 Thanks for the advice...I will leave the size to my ID..see wat he say as the ceiling design is done by him.. But i also getting 2 tower fans for my bedroom and living as i m not a air-con person..i prefer fan.. And when friend come for MJ can use also.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greycat 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2007 Our FSM visited our house on wed, I can't believe the number of things to change or add to our house.... I think most of our concepts are affected. Especially my master bedroom, the colour combi is just horrible. Light blue for wall, light pink for ceiling, gold for connice... that's not all... GREEN FOR CURTAINS... I cant believe it, it sound like a bad joke, but wat to do, FSM said like taht then good for me and hubby... I cant have my big walk-in wardrobe as well... now can only have a smal L shape wardrobe... My living room is not too different from our actual concept except that we need to put REAL CHINESE things... supposed to aid to bringing wealth and babies to our family... need a vase of 8 xian at one corner, another one of tiger at another corner... also painting of 8 horses right next to my LCD TV... AARRGGGG.... i really dun wan my house to become so chinese, hoping it can stay modern.Now reallly headache, wan to follow the FSM, but scared the whole house turns funny looking, dun wan to follow, scared not good for us (beside we spend so much to engage him, waste $$). Anyone engage a FSM but never follow all of what he said? I think the most poor-thing person is my ID, have to crack his head to make my house more modernised looking, meet our budget and make the whole place beautiful. Poor thing... hope he can do it...Harlow Jaimegal, cant help but response to ur posting here...Wah, sounds like a reali bad joke frm ur FSM....how can haf pink, blue n green together in 1 room???? My heart goes out to u.... Just wanna shr the following experience:We oso hired a FSM for hse even though we're not very the pantang type (in fact, we nt gonna haf altar at hme wan)....Found out frm sme uncles who do research fengshui dat there r many types of FSM (sme is simple modern type), sme is more decor-type (must have fan, gourd, toad figurine etc)....Frm our understandg, according to the fengshui-gua of u n ur hubby, they will come up with a color scheme (mabbe 4-5 colors), den u guys can follow easily...Fengshui is meant to coordinate ur hme so dat the ppl staying inside feels comfortable... If u dun feel comfortable, den it defeats e purpose, mabbe can ask ur FSM to propose 1 best color?Our design ideas were oso chgd after our FSM commentd we cant use black color (no mre orh-orh tiles for my hse, sobs ).....but most of his proposals were quite believeable. Eg, he proposed a solid wall backg for our studyrm (which is common in fengshui theory)....SCV channel 52 smetimes got this fengshui show (Taiwanese), quite gd for picking up basic tips...If ur nt comfortable, mabbe can get another FSM for ur hse? Good FSM dont necessarily charge exp oso....I paid FSM <$500 for a EA unit....Like see doctor oso, if unsure, always get a 2nd opinion !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karen77sg 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2007 For my case, my FSM propose a few colours for us and what are the colours to avoid.And if some reno plans cannot be changed, he will place some Fengshui items there to block.He charges me $380 for opening of door & initial advice before reno, $180 for " An Sheng", $168 forbuying some items and final review. All in all, we spent around $728 and he came to my house for3 times.I dunno how good is he as this is the 1st time we had him to see Fengshui for our house.Previously, we only went to him for "Suan Ming".....I tink the colours the FSM proposed for u is really out of combination and I dun tinku wil feel comfortable sleeping in tat room....Perhaps u can tink over it again to prevent regrets!
