Staircase next to the kitchen / stove side

[myfs_140594]

Dear Master Lee,

My staircase locates next to the kitchen on the side where the stove is. The wall is between the staircase and thekitchen. The kitchen and the staircaseare not in the center point. Is this not a good arrangement? Thank you so much for your advice.

1. This has more to do with Commonsense or Commonsense approach to Feng Shui:

1.1. For example, in the even that the stove area catches fire; both smoke and fire may overwhemn the staircase area.

1.2. Alternatively, if for some reasons; the fire at the stove was extinguished but if the stove is a gas stove; the gas may flow around the staircase / and nearby area - both dangerous and may be fatal to breathe-in.
