As I
wrote in my prior blog, a harmonious home has all of the 5 Elements represented
balanced so that one doesn’t overpower another. When a space is designed with
all the elements represented in balance, there’s a feeling of peace and
serenity throughout the home.
It's not always possible, practical, nor desireable to have a representation of each element in every room: Water, Fire, Earth, Wood, Metal. The elements have corresponding colors, so a mix of the physical elements combined with representational colors of others will result in a composite balance.

The color
correspondents are as follows:
Earth-Yellow: In
this bedroom, there is no stone, but soft yellow walls, and the buttery tone of
the console satisfies the Earth element. Candles,
Fire-Red:
Lacking space for a fireplace, red on the walls represents the Fire element.
Water-Black:
Lacking a water view or fountain, black complies with the Water element.
Wood-Green:
Live plants bring in the life necessary to fulfill the Wood element. Plants are especially welcome in stark
contemporary spaces with a great deal of chrome, black, and white
Metal-White:
Instead of stainless appliances, white cabinetry and matching appliances
