Office Chair Orientation for Store Opening

Admin October 10, 2026

The orientation of office chairs for store opening can be selected according to the principles of Feng Shui. Different orientations combined with layout adjustments can enhance financial luck. Here are specific suggestions:

I. Common Auspicious Orientations and Layouts

  1. Sitting West to East: Facing the auspicious position of the 'Nine Purple Star', the overall fortune is excellent. The cushions of office chairs should preferably be blue, black, green, or cyan to enhance auspicious energy. Place red flowers on the east side of the office desk to boost morale and enhance financial luck. Place brass ornaments and clear water in the southeast and northeast corners respectively to balance spatial energy.
  2. Sitting Southeast to Northwest: Although it is backed by the inauspicious position of the 'Two Black Star', it can be turned from bad to good through reasonable layout. The cushions of office chairs should preferably be white or beige to purify the influence of the inauspicious star. Place green ornaments or aquatic plants on the northwest side of the office desk to enhance vitality and financial luck. Place small white stones and clear water in the north to enhance spatial purity.
  3. Sitting South to North: The cushions of office chairs should preferably be blue or black. Place small white stones and clear water in the north to stabilize the aura.
  4. Sitting North to South: The cushions of office chairs should preferably be warm colors such as red or yellow. Place clear water or blue ornaments in the south to harmonize yin and yang.
  5. Sitting East or Southeast: Suitable for leaders who are young or planning to expand their companies, symbolizing a good start and development. No special layout adjustments are required.
  6. Sitting Southwest to Northeast: Represents competition and wise investment. Suitable for leaders of ore mining institutions, it can be paired with metal ornaments to enhance energy.
  7. Sitting Northwest: Suitable for leaders who focus on stable development, long-term planning, or maintaining good relationships with subordinates. Circular items (such as copper bells) can be placed to enhance cohesion.

II. Feng Shui Taboos and Precautions

  1. Seats should not face directly at the door of the boss's or supervisor's office to avoid the influence of conflicting magnetic fields on work efficiency.
  2. The ground beneath office chairs and desks should not be empty (such as glass tabletops), which can easily lead to the 'empty warehouse' taboo and make work unstable. It is recommended to use solid wood or carpets to cover.
  3. Avoid placing office desks under the windows of walkways to prevent external interference and negative energy. Curtains or screens can be installed to block.
  4. Office chairs and desks should not face cabinet corners or room corners as this can easily trigger work conflicts. This can be resolved by adjusting the angle or placing green plants.

III. Personalized Adjustment Suggestions
If the boss's eight-character chart favors metal, the chair material can be wooden (wood enhances metal). Employees can improve Feng Shui by adding cushions in colors corresponding to the five elements, such as red for those who favor fire and black for those who favor water. When arranging the layout, it is necessary to consider the actual spatial structure and avoid blindly following formulas, with comfort and harmony as the primary principles.
