Kitchen stove color feng shui

1. White

The true meaning of a white kitchen is that we should learn to release all bad emotions and regain our own peace and health.

2. Blue

Full of dreamy colors, always maintaining a clear and romantic feeling, the cabinets appear pure, lovely and inspiring in such a space. Under the shade of nature, blue is more fresh, elegant and decorative. It is especially suitable for white-collar workers with busy work, allowing their noisy minds to dock in a quiet harbor. When blue is matched with other colors, it can also produce unexpected effects.

The blue and yellow cabinets are particularly fresh and eye-catching under sufficient light. The combination of the two shows maturity and elegance, complementing each other and being harmonious yet flexible. Use orange to decorate the blue cabinets to add a sense of brightness and liveliness to the deepness. The bold use of gray and blue as the main colors will refresh people's eyes and make them feel refreshed. In addition, light blue is simple and clear; dark blue is avant-garde and modern.

3. Green

Relaxing, refreshing and pleasing colors. Green is a theme that will never be exhausted and will never make people bored, because every change of it corresponds to the impression that nature gives to human beings, so green is suitable for everyone who likes it. The transition from light green to gray-green and then dark purple completes the transition from outdoor to indoor, which corresponds to the natural visual response of human beings to space. The light green floor like the fields, the yellow cabinet like the autumn leaves, and the dark green table top like the pine needles form a natural scenery that makes people feel refreshed. The combination of light green and light blue makes the kitchen full of vitality. Living in a light green space, dreams are fresh. The bright and scattered green makes people feel as if they are in the green mountains and valleys.

4. Silver gray

The popularity of silver-gray is a product of modern civilized cities, integrating efficiency, health, positivity and enthusiasm. The heavy silver-gray color that appears simple and plain can also help the owner who returns home from the noisy world to regain a peaceful state of mind as soon as possible. Fashionable and tasteful consumers prefer this color. Silver gray and modern cabinets with prominent personalized decoration are often inseparable. This color tone is attached to the exquisitely cut cabinet space, as if you are in a spacecraft traveling in space.

5. Red

Passionate and full of festive colors. Red is the most appropriate color for young newlyweds. It not only reflects the strong and bold personality of the owner, but also shows the youthful vigor and vitality and displays luxury. According to tests, red can increase appetite. The combination of red and white, red like the morning sun and white like soft jade, uses the gentleness of white to slightly dilute the monotony caused by red, making the whole more varied and lively. The combination of red and yellow has a restrained warmth, and coupled with the festive and auspicious color techniques of old-fashioned furniture, it will make the cabinets look prosperous and new.

6. Wood color

Pastoral colors that return to nature. The simplicity of solid wood, dotted with rural flowers and plants, and simple design make the home space full of rural atmosphere. Elderly couples and people with stable personalities can choose this as the first choice for cabinet color. The simplicity of wood, supplemented by light blue and dark green, can highlight the warm feeling.

7. Yellow

China has respected yellow since ancient times and it is a symbol of status. Light yellow can be matched with a variety of colors to produce satisfactory effects, such as the blue, green, red and so on mentioned earlier. The bright apricot yellow color will create a youthful and unrestrained mood.

Six taboos of stove feng shui

Stove Feng Shui 1

Avoid placing the kitchen sink too close to the stove as it represents fire and the kitchen sink represents water. Fire and water are incompatible and the two should not be too close to each other.

Stove Feng Shui II

The stoves should avoid the colors black and red. When choosing a cooking stove or building a stove, some colors should not be used, such as red. Red belongs to fire, and stoves also belong to fire in the five elements. From the perspective of color psychology, red can easily make people irritable, so it is best to avoid it. Black is also not suitable.

Stove Feng Shui Three

Avoid having the kitchen stove directly facing the door. In traditional Chinese Feng Shui concepts, it is considered that the kitchen is where the family cooks and maintains life, so it should not be directly hit by the air brought in by the door.

The stove should not be facing the door or be close to the window, because if the gas stove and the LPG stove are blown out by the wind, they will leak liquefied gas, which is very dangerous.

Stove Feng Shui 4

Avoid "west exposure" and the stove should not be placed in the west. Traditional Feng Shui believes that the "gold" energy in the west is suppressed by the "fire" of the furnace, which is inauspicious. The sun sets in the west and the air is getting dark. It would be unlucky if the stove absorbs this "dark air" when cooking dinner. Food cooked on the stove, exposed to the setting sun, is easily changed, and people can get sick after eating it.

Stove Feng Shui Five

Try to avoid hanging the stove in the air. Due to insufficient space, people often place the stove in a suspended position on the window sill or anti-theft net. According to tradition, it is best to have the stove "on the ground." The ancients believed that this would benefit from the earth's energy and fortune; and from a modern safety perspective, it can avoid many potential safety hazards.

Stove Feng Shui 6

The kitchen is a place where water and fire collide. If the two can be balanced and coexist harmoniously, it will be beneficial to the prosperity of the home. The kitchen is a yin area where food is stored, not an area frequently used by the whole family. However, if a corner of the kitchen is used as a temporary dining area, it can increase the kitchen's yang energy and balance the kitchen's yin and yang.
