The door is the portal, the focus of any building whether a home or an office.

1. Front door faces a staircase
2. Front door faces a corner
3. Front door faces a column or post
4. Front door is visible from the back door
5. has a view of a washbasin or toilet
6. has a view of a stove or fireplace
7. faces the door of a bedroom

In Feng Shui, it's not recommended to work, study, relax or place a chair with your back to any doors. Sometimes it happens in an office, but these chairs should be arranged again at Feng Shui point of view.

Window

As with doors, some window shapes are more favorable than others for different areas of the house. A square or wide rectangular shaped window represents the earth element and promotes stability, while a round window represents the metal element and promotes focus and determination. A tall, narrow window represents tree energy, promoting communication and harmony. Whatever the shape or size of the window, it is probably the standard that windows are best opening outwards and opening fully. It is believed, brings good fortune and enhanced opportunities to the occupants. In Feng Shui windows that open inwards will have adverse effects on health, finance and career. If your windows do happen to open inwards, it is also a good idea to determine what sort of Chi is being admitted. If the Chi is negative Sha Chi, it can be diverted or blocked by the use of a vase of flowers at the window, hanging wind chimes or something similar.
