What Is Feng Shui?

Increase Your Luck with Feng Shui

Feng Shui is the specific arrangement of furniture in your home. It is a system which has existed in previous Animal Crossing games and which, like its real world equivalent, places great emphasis on the directions of South, West, and East.

Feng Shui - Criteria & Arrangement

Feng Shui Criteria

Judging range is 2 squares from the wall
Green furniture on the south side
Red furniture on the east side
Yellow furniture on the west side

The Basics Of Feng Shui Placement

With the southern side being the entrance, yellow = west, green = south, red = east

The general principles of Feng Shui are as follows: place green furniture in the South, red furniture in the East, and yellow furniture in the West. Your Feng Shui score is calculated for all rooms in your house - make sure you place furniture appropriately in every room!

Custom Designs Don't Work?

▲We might have overdone it a little bit with the green...

Through our experiments placing various Custom Design items, we found that they didn't seem to have a great effect on your HHA score. We're inclined to say they're not worth it.

Example Feng Shui Room

In this room we focused on placing green furniture in the southern part of the room (near the entrance). Terrariums are recommended, as they're quite easy to make. Potted ivy is good for using up wall space.

Get Better Luck With Recipes

If you set up green Feng Shui in your room's southern area, you'll find that furniture and DIY recipes drop from balloons more frequently! From our experience, the difference is immediately noticeable, so if you're a DIY/Furniture fanatic, we highly recommend doing this.
