Centre point of house in utility room

[myfs_140469]

Hi Mr Cecil,
Is there any concern if the centre point of the house is in the utility/ maid room? Should I keep the room clear or can I still use it as utility room for storage?
Thanks.

1. The best way to ascertain the answer to your question is if possible; plot a flying star chart.
2. Check what is the Flying Stars at the centrepoint of the home or apartment.
3. Often, after ploting the flying star number(s); there are usually two possible outcomes:-
3.1. OUTCOME ONE: If the flying star numbers are not so good e.g. Mountain Star #5 with Water Star #9; then it is good that this is a utility room. If it is a utility room; one can "lock it up" when not in use. If it ispurely a maid's bedroom; then can't help it, often the door may need to be opened to allow air to flow into the room when she is in it. (Don't want her to fall sick due to stagnant air flow.
3.2. OUTCOME TWO: If the flying stars are very auspicious and if they are trapped at the centrepoint of the home. THUS, in this case, the REVERSE is true. Instead of locking up the utility room; hopefully this is a walkway or passage way. So that the good stars are not inadvertenly locked up. Here, if it is a store or utility, then to answer your question; not that good as the good qi is "wasted" as it is trapped at the centrepoint.

Thanks Mr Cecil.
Will you able to see whether is center of the house is in the utitily room for this floor plan ?

In my opinion, based on the best guess of centre-of-gravity using the "eye-ball plus feel" I believe if one were to place the outline of the layout on a card-board; the best guest is that the centrepoint (or centre-of-gravity) should lie between the range of marking(S) "A" or "B".
Please see attachment.
If so, the centerpoint in this layout should (NEVER) be inside the utility room. The center of the house should be just outside the fringe of the utility room.

1. Personally, I love to visualise the "center-of-gravity" of just any layout plan.
2. For this rather oval cum handle (main entrance passage way) type of layout plan;
3. In the first example, I try to visualise the larger outline and where to place the boundary.
4. In this 2nd example, I call this method "think small" or think petit: and try to visualise the layout from a smaller perspective or smaller inner area. Please see attachment.
5. After comparing this example with the first example; I found that it seems like the centerpoint (in my opinion) is identical at marking "A". Thus, I personally feel that marking "A" seems a better choice of the center-of-gravity for this layout plan.
6. Of course, the best method is to photo-copy the layout, paste it onto a cardboard and cut-out the exact outline and balance it on a pin. In both my examples, I am using "personal feel and estimate".

1. In my opinion, there is a "third-method".
2. This method is takes into consideration the overall shape of the interior layout.
2.1. For example, if the outline of the unit looks oval; then why not draw an exact oval outline of the layout plan and from there find the centerpoint. Please see attachment.
2.2. After doing so, becase this unit has an overly long entrance passage way, often this can slightly change the center-of-gravity.
2.3. Thus in this example, to fine tune or compensate, I have moved the "center-of-gravtiy" to the location marked by the GREEN arrow.
3. In my opinion, for those who fear of getting the centerpoint wrongly or vastly wrong; then may consider this method. For example, one can fold the sheet into two or middle and with a scissors cut out half the outline and after doing so, unfold the two halves and one gets to see the oval shape with the folded outline which is the middle point. Fold the other half...

These are further considerations:
1. As this layout plan has an "unusual" pistol like grip (main entrance narrow corridor) and other quirks like a protuding balcony and some missing corner to the left side of the balcony;
1.1. Thus based on the ART of determining the center of this layout; one must take note that in such a situation; particularly the "pistol grip"; it is not practical to apply what I had mentioned; the idea of matching missing corners with protusions.
1.2. In many purely rectangular and squarish layout plans without unusual protusions like the above pistol grip; using eye-ball; often I would try to visualise to make sure that the missing corners is nearly equal to the protusions in the layout plan.
2. For this entire outline which looks like a Buck Rogers or Star Trek type of pistol gun or laser gun; may seriously consider the photo copy of the layout + paste it on a cardboard and cut out the outline and balance a pin to find the center of gravity.
3. When determing the center point of a layout; in some cases we can apply "Science to it" especially common rectangular and even triangle layout plans. But with unusual protusions; we may have to in this case apply the "ART" of determining the centerpoint.
