Today many of us may be a little paradise at home. The way our gardens are built and played a small space of nature is as we believe and try.

A garden created with the basic principles of Feng Shui is a garden that reproduces the beauty and harmony of mother nature, making the space to promote an intimate relationship with the land and therapeutic.

I have compiled some tips from landscape design to apply the Feng Shui can help you create your own balanced and harmonious outer space, I hope you will help create harmony in your garden or terrace.

Chinese gardens are famous for their moon gates, pergolas beautiful forms that mark the entrance to the garden. The sense input can be achieved with gazebos, gates, trees and shrubs, or simply changing the pavement. A curved and winding path to the front door, is very good, as it promotes the Chi (name given by the Feng Shui to the vital energy that all things are made) between flowing smoothly in your home.

In the garden it is advisable to use the same materials and shapes with the house was built. Straight lines are not found in nature and should be relaxed, this can be done along with curved flower beds filled with plants arranged informally.

To design a landscape with the principles of Feng Shui used as in the interior of the housing, the bagua map to locate areas and adequate power.

The bagua map in the garden

The bagua has its origins in the I Ching, an ancient Chinese book of divination, which is divided into blocks of eight basic trigrams of the most important in the lives of people such as health, love, prosperity, fame and reputation , creativity, wisdom, career and synchrony or strokes of luck.

Each of these blocks is associated with certain colors and shapes, we apply also the bagua map in the gardens so that the garden elements match and enhance these areas or blocks.

We recall the importance of keeping a balance between Yin and Yang so that light and shadow, straight and curved features are in harmony.
