Feng Shui and Interior Redesign

QUESTION
I'm not acquainted with many concepts of Feng Shui, but from what I understand of the concepts that drive the philosophy, I believe you may find it often conflicts with standard American interior design, which is driven entirely by the architectural features of a room, the room's usage, the scale and proportion of elements in the room and the even distribution of color.

ANSWER
You may find some rooms will blend together nicely with the two philosophies and there will be others that are in conflict, so you'll have to choose which one is best for your client. If a client really insists on Feng Shui philosophy first and foremost, go that way. If not, go with American design because not everyone will relate or agree with the FS philosophy.

You'll have to play it by ear, I'm afraid.
