WHAT IS FENG SHUI? THE BASIC PRINCIPLES AND HOW IT WORKS

A well-considered home, like a well-placed piece of furniture, invites both beauty and stillness. Feng shui, an ancient Chinese philosophy, teaches us that the way energy flows through a space mirrors how it moves within us. Alicia Adams Alpaca captures that same sensibility. Her solid red Classic Throw, made from the rare Suri alpaca, brings warmth to the bedroom while aligning with feng shui’s fire element, symbolic of passion and vitality. In feng shui, soft textures ground us.

Clear walkways, balanced lighting, and meaningful objects promote calm. A thoughtfully draped throw across the foot of the bed can soften edges and shift energy, just as a circular mirror or a living plant draws joy inward. Whether arranging the bed to face the right direction or clearing space beneath it, feng shui encourages a quieter rhythm. Paired with heirloom-quality alpaca, the result is not only visual harmony but soulful ease.
