As the main architectural form of residence for generations, the courtyard house is famous both at home and abroad and is well known to the world. There is a corridor between the main room and the wing room in the courtyard house, where people can walk and rest. The walls of the courtyard and the houses facing the street generally do not open windows to the outside, so the environment in the courtyard is closed and quiet. So, what are the Feng Shui key points in the courtyard decoration design?

1. The orientation of the building is very particular, facing north and south. Since the northerly wind prevails in most parts of China in winter and the southeasterly wind prevails in summer, this has affected the formation of the "north to south" pattern from one side. Under the influence of Feng Shui theory, a highly functional environmental model, the best orientation choice for courtyard buildings is to face north and south.

2. The layout of a courtyard house is a quadrangle with houses built around it and an open space in the middle, instead of a triple courtyard, or simply built in rows and rows. The courtyard buildings in Beijing are typical examples of the concept of “four directions” embodied in the form of residential buildings. Since there are four sides, in a courtyard, of course, houses must be built on all four sides, so that a courtyard will naturally be formed in the middle. According to the Five Elements theory, earth is in the middle. Therefore, the land is in the courtyard, and the middle is located in the center of the whole courtyard. The so-called "place" means that the square land has four sides and four corners, which coincide with the land (east, south, west, north) and the four corners (southeast, northwest, northeast, southwest). There are arrangements on the four sides and four corners of the courtyard, which creates an overall harmony.

3. The courtyard door of a courtyard house must be oriented towards the southeast corner. Facing north and facing south, the main gate of the courtyard is located in the southeast corner of the courtyard. "The Book of Changes·Yi Lun Kun Chi Du·Li Lun Kun and the Four Gates of Sunda People" pointed out: "Xun is the wind gate and the ground household. The myriad shapes pass through the sun, two yang and one yin, and there is no form of escape. The wind is vented from the earth. , so it is called the ground household. The household means the door, which connects the vitality of the heaven and the earth. "Simply speaking, the Xun position in the Bagua is a place of ventilation. It is like the window of a house, which can connect the vitality of the heaven and the earth.

4. The toilet in a courtyard should be arranged in the southwest corner of the yard. The toilet is arranged in the southwest corner of the yard - this was a common practice in courtyard houses in the past. Or arrange it in the west small cross-yard of the outer courtyard, or in the southwest corner of the inner courtyard, at the corner of the corridor.

5. The location of the kitchen in the courtyard. The kitchen in a courtyard house is often arranged in a room to the south of the east room, a room to the north, or simply located in the northeast corner of the yard. Correspondingly, restaurants in courtyards are mostly located in the east room. In short, as long as the kitchen is on the east side. With this arrangement, a term that best reflects the above principles is "East Chef Si Ming". This is actually another form of sitting on the evil side and facing life.
