Where should the skylight be placed in the house?

According to Feng Shui expert Nguyen Song Ha (Song Ha Feng Shui Company, Hanoi ), the skylight is the place to absorb the harmonious energy of heaven, earth and the universe. The arrangement of the skylight and the mezzanine area needs to be taken into account to avoid violations of Feng Shui and affect the living space of each family member.

Is it okay to design a skylight near the kitchen?

The provinces in the South Central region have hot and dry climate conditions. The long, narrow, tubular houses, even with open skylights in the middle of the house, are still not enough to handle the heat loss and cool air flow, especially for houses with the kitchen designed in the back.

To get light for the kitchen space, as well as light and wind for the rooms on the upper floor directly above the kitchen, most families open an additional skylight at the end near the kitchen.

However, the skylight is dynamic, because it is a place to receive sunlight and wind, so it is taboo to place the skylight near the kitchen. The kitchen needs to be "hidden from the wind" to "gather energy" (hidden from the wind to gather energy - the moving energy needs to be airy).

In case the homeowner accidentally designed a skylight near the kitchen, it is necessary to bring a miniature mountain and river into the interior, through the organization of a rockery and a pond. It is also possible to place a fish tank with a circulating water filter pump, or simply a small fountain to help circulate water in the house.

In case the homeowner arranges a skylight next to the dining room, they can use ornamental plants and a stream of water to create a mutual relationship between Wood and Water. If the skylight is opened for ventilation in the kitchen, it should be arranged in the form of a vertical straw (Wood generates Fire), but the top must have a roof to avoid rain splashes.

You can use a glass roof to get light or a sloping roof (Fire) to create a chimney effect that draws heat up, preventing smoke and odors from spreading to other rooms.

If the skylight is placed near the bedroom, the homeowner needs to decorate according to the Water and Wood elements, by creating light decorations, bright colors with materials close to nature...

Where should the skylight be placed?

Where to place the skylight is always a concern of many people. Opening the skylight not only brings in more light or vents the wind well, but also essentially balances the yin and yang. Opening the skylight in the middle is to activate the flow of air, increasing the activity of the central area.

However, if the house is not too long, small in area, not dark, and does not have rooms in the middle that need to be passed through, it is not necessary to open a skylight in the middle, but only need to create ventilation for the roof of the elevator shaft and the skylight at the back (combined with a water floor and drying yard) is enough.

Opening too many skylights can even cause the house to be too bright and the sun to be too strong, making it always bright (especially in directions with harsh sunlight like the west).

According to the three-way school, the skylight's position will be calculated depending on the main direction of the floor plan as follows:

- North facing house with skylight in East and Southeast, South

- South facing house with skylight in Northwest, West and North.

- House facing East has skylight in Southwest and Northeast, West, Northwest

- West-facing houses have skylights in the North, Southeast, and East.

- Northwest facing house with skylights in East, Southeast, North

- Northeast facing house with skylight in Southwest, South.

- Southwest facing house with skylight in the South.

- Southeast facing house with skylight in Northwest, West, Southwest, Northeast.

Skylights have no direction, so there is no need to consider their direction. However, open skylights should not be placed in the north of the house, because that is the direction that often has bad energy for human health.

Some notes on the size and shape of the skylight

The skylight should not be too small or narrow, because it will not achieve the purpose of absorbing the vital energy of heaven and earth, but will create the opposite effect of forming murderous aura.

Skylights that circulate with many living spaces should absolutely not pass through the bathroom door, as it will drag bad air to all other living spaces.

The shape of the skylight should be created to match the architectural shape of the house, that is, to be compatible with the five elements of the architectural shape of the house. For a house shaped like wood, the skylight should also be in the shape of a long wood, or a soft, wavy water shape. For a house shaped like earth, the skylight should be in the shape of a square earth, or a metal shape such as a circle or an ellipse.

When opening a skylight, it is necessary to consider the actual direction of the house and the sun and wind to arrange the skylight roof to be a fixed or retractable type to be more proactive in regulating light and preventing rain and strong sunlight from entering the house.
