About this ebook

Ancient and global modern design come together in this practical guide to interior design, biophilic design, and feng shui for your home.
 
Part spiritual growth workbook and part treatise on the power of nature, Creating Luminous Spaces is your practical guide to giving your home a refreshing energy boost. In this inventive approach to interior design, Maureen K. Calamia blends modern trends with the five elements of feng shui, an ancient Chinese system that brings the cycles and benefits of nature to your home interior.
With inspiring ideas and practical information, Calamia will help you discover which of nature’s elements represents your energy. Should you enhance your home with natural light or a fish bowl? New organizational habits or tall, vertical lines? Featuring practical exercises, meditations, and real stories about clients and students, as you embark on this mind-body-spirit connection with your home, you’ll find out how:
  • Indoor lighting and lighting design can strengthen the fire element
  • Organizational behavior is influenced by the metal element
  • Space planning with plants nourishes the wood element
  • And more!
