Cate
Bramble has devoted her career to highlighting the differences between
‘feng shui-lite’ as a fashionable pursuit in contrast to the original
intentions of the Chinese masters. Here she presents the authentic
principles in a technical, no-nonsense pocket book specifically for
architects.
As clients become more demanding and the competition for projects heats
up, the architect is well advised to have many strings to their bow.
This practical guide includes line illustrations that present the
principles of feng shui, the Chinese art or practice in which a
structure or site is chosen or configured so as to harmonize with the
spiritual forces that inhabit it, and their application in architecture
through planning principles, services, building elements and materials,
in an accessible, easy reference format. The feng shui-savvy architect
can also benefit from feng shui’s ability to match structures and land,
and the peculiar capacity of authentic feng shui to forecast
development-related concerns including cost overruns, quality issues -
even worker injuries and trade disputes!
The author explains feng shui from archaeological sources and evidence
of practice in the east, contrasting it with what passes for feng shui
in the west. She analyses the practice in terms of such concepts as
western systems theory, viewshed, space syntax and the ‘pattern
landscape’ theory of urban planning. For the first time, the
Sustainable implications of feng shui design are explained with
reference to the latest developments in behavioural and cognitve
sciences, evolutionary biology and other western viewpoints.
