Entries and windows that are too large or too small
Doors and windows help receive light and air circulation for the house. However, if the door is too large, air circulation is too strong, easily causing energy loss, creating a feeling of difficulty maintaining stability. Conversely, if the door is too small, the house will be cramped, lacking light, air stagnant, causing a feeling of heavyness and stuffiness.
Therefore, we should design doors and windows in harmonious proportions, avoiding placing doors facing elevators, stairs or long corridors to maintain a balanced and comfortable living space.
Kitchen adjacent to the bedroom
The kitchen is an area with a lot of heat, smell and smoke. If the kitchen is placed close to the bedroom, especially the same wall or opposite door, it will easily cause discomfort, affecting sleep and health.
Therefore, the kitchen should be arranged a reasonable distance from the bedroom. If you cannot change the structure, you can use partitions, sliding doors or curtains to limit heat and odors from spreading into the resting space.
Beams pressing on beds, sofas or desk
The beam (crossbar) is the structure running across the ceiling. When the beam is located right above the bed, sofa or desk, the space often creates a heavy feeling, easily causing stress and loss of concentration. In the long term, this can affect psychology, quality of rest and work efficiency.
When arranging furniture, avoid placing beds, sofas or desks directly under the beam. If it is not possible to change, you can make a false ceiling, use decorative walls or ceiling lighting to reduce the feeling of being "squeezed" and make the space more comfortable.
