Feng shui describes a system of spatial arrangement based on the flow of qi through physical environments. Western science has not validated qi as a measurable force, and the compass-based calculations of traditional feng shui have no empirical support. But the core observation, that the arrangement of physical space profoundly affects human psychology, is one of the most robust findings in environmental psychology. This article examines prospect-refuge theory, biophilic design, neuroarchitecture and the measurable ways in which rooms shape the brains that inhabit them.
