Office Chair Back Clothing
Admin October 12, 2026
Office chair back clothing has various considerations in Feng Shui regarding color, material, hanging method, and quantity. Reasonable selection and matching can help create a good aura and enhance work luck.

Color Selection:
- Preferred earthy yellow or yellow: In the Five Elements, earthy yellow belongs to earth, symbolizing the earth firmly supporting all things. Hanging it on the back of a chair implies having someone always supporting you from behind, forming a man-made backer. It is especially suitable for situations where clients change their minds suddenly or leaders are inconsistent. People with a wood element deficiency and an excess of water are also particularly suitable for using yellow to boost their luck.
- Other available colors: Subtle neutral colors such as beige, camel, off-white, light apricot, and gray. A navy blue jacket looks professional. When the seat faces the main door or aisles directly, hanging warm-colored clothes can resolve the issue of having no backer. In summer, a mint green thin cardigan can be chosen, while in winter, a dark brown coat is suitable. For those whose fate is against earth, a burgundy lucky shirt is more appropriate.
- Colors to avoid: Excessive use of fiery red or purple, which belong to the fire element, can easily make people restless. Dark blue or black, which belong to the water element, can make people drowsy when hung in poorly lit offices. Avoid fluorescent or bright red colors to prevent being too eye-catching during meetings.
Material Selection:
- Recommended cotton and linen materials: Synthetic, reflective fabrics can easily bounce away good luck. Cotton and linen materials are natural and simple, in line with the harmony and stability pursued in Feng Shui, helping to create a good aura.
Hanging Method and Quantity:
- Hanging method: The clothes should be neatly draped over the back of the chair, preferably covering the entire back to better form a backer. If the chair back is too low, add a cushion of the same color to enhance support.
- Quantity: Two main colors are sufficient. Avoid creating a color palette and do not hang too many to form an oppressive situation, which can cause psychological pressure and affect work performance.
Other Considerations:
- Keep it tidy: Avoid clutter. A tidy environment helps the flow and stability of the aura.
- Pair with green plants or screens: Green plants can add vitality, and screens can block and resolve negative energy. They complement the Feng Shui effect of hanging clothes and work better together.
