Feng Shui Tips for Choosing and Decorating Your Thai Home
## Choosing the Right Home ### Direction Matters - **Best facing directions**: East (health & family) or Southeast (wealth) - **Avoid**: T-junctions pointing at your front door, dead-end roads - **Prefer**: Slightly elevated land, open space in front of the house ### Shape of the Plot - Square or rectangular plots are ideal - Avoid triangular or irregular-shaped land - The front should be slightly wider than the back ("money bag" shape) ## Interior Arrangement ### Living Room - Place the sofa against a solid wall (support behind you) - Ensure the front door is visible from the main seating - Good natural light and ventilation ### Bedroom - Don't place the bed directly facing the door - Avoid mirrors facing the bed - Headboard against a solid wall ### Kitchen - The stove should not face the front door directly - Keep the kitchen clean and well-lit - Water (sink) and fire (stove) should not be directly opposite ## Lucky Numbers for Thai Homes Many Thai buyers consider house numbers significant: - **9**: Supreme fortune (เก้า sounds like ก้าว = progress) - **6**: Smooth flow - **Avoid 4**: Sounds like "death" in Chinese
