It serves as a transition from public to private, from reality to relaxation, hence its term “mouth of chi” in Chinese, meaning portal for energy. The best feng shui colours for this aera are healing light blue, lively light green, nourishing light pink and refreshing white or light grey with hints of brass. (Image courtesy of Archlin Studio)

The heart of a home where family and friends get together, the living room is much benefit from earth tone colours, or shades of yellow for those in business as it represents wealth.

According to feng shui practice, kitchen is an expression of fire from the five elements in Chinese philosophy. One should avoid using blue and black in the kitchen, as the two colours represent the element of water, which, according to feng shui theory, is considered an element that puts down the much-needed element of fire in a kitchen. (Image courtesy of Archlin Studio)

Meanwhile, yellow is also a colour that goes against the element of fire. The best feng shui colours for the kitchen are white, green and natural wood with brass accents, which are believed to be able to bring positive energy into the cooking space. (Image courtesy of Archlin Studio)
