Hi,
I am seriously considering to buy this 4 room HDB flat but the layout of the unit is of odd shapes, so wanted to know if I can renovate and hide the odd shapes and thishouse still can be of good fengshui? Or no point buying since nothing can be done to rectify it?
Pls kindly advise.
Thanks.
cheers,
Kevin

1. In my opinion, there are also several condominiums that have "similar" (although not exact layout plan) as your attachment.
2. For example, the entire development : "The Bayshore" interior layouts are "triangular" in shape. Another condo at Simei Street 3: Eastpoint green also has a "triangular" shaped layout.
3. It is impractical to correct i.e. hide all the odd shapes.
4. In my opinion; it is not automatically true across the board to generalise that everyone staying in such a layout would suffer dire consequences: It depends!
5. Most importantly each of these units will also have their own facing and sitting direction according to Flying Star Feng Shui. And fortunes would depend on such a factor. Of course besides other consideration e.g. hopefully the kitchen / stove is not at NW etc.. etc...

In my opinon, there are even more condos with such a "triangular" type of layout plan (again although not identical) these are truly triangular shaped layout.
Frankly, I have seen more condos than "your type" of Housing Board triangular layout plan. Often, some these units in a Housing Board are at "corners" or at an "L" location and is not replicated through a single block - most of the time.

Hi,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply.
Need to check with you, since it's triangular shape, how do I determine the midpoint of the house? Also how to judge the facing, etc, standing from the main door, it's facing East but from the floor plan, the main door is on extreme right so is the main door facing East or NorthEast? If the block is L-shaped, how do I know which direction is the facing of my block?
Looking at the master bedroom, I can'tseem to find a place to put my king size bed, any advise?
Since one of the bedroom has sharp corner, is it advisable to build a custom made wardrobe to hide it?
Thanks again!
cheers,
Kevin

These are some considerations:-
1. Attached please find the estimated centrepoint, using the "eye-ball" method.
2. Frankly, it is TIME for you to use your fingers to do the SEARCHING.
3. In fact, there are TONS of resources on the so called facing and sitting direction.
4. Don't dream of finding an answer within one reply : else it would take me lots of duplicated time. Futhermore, I am on a business trip overseas tomorrow. Furthermore, there are many many Indian chiefs with regards to their idea of what constitues the facing direction to them.
4.1 Frankly, it depends! Go read out the TONS of past msgs... erh.. I have to run....
5. You can use the SEARCH feature on the TOP left frame of this forum.
6. Finding the centrepoint:
6.1. In fact, your layout plan as mention is nothing new. In several of the past messages; I have also clearly illustrated the "eye-ball" method and also illustrated that roughly the area o fhte missing corner would as far as possible be equal to the area of protrusion.
6.2. Thus, I am just now estimating using "eye-ball"...
6.3. Another method is the "cut-out" method.. again check it out.

These are further considerations:
1. Your question was based on floor plan.
2. However, the term: Location, location and location is far more important than any other considerations.
3. For example, see attachmnet. Many of such of the units you had mentioned "belong" to a Housing Board block where often it is not a single rectangular block but something like the attachment.
4. Here, because of the "blend" a block often comprising two blocks merged like the illustration. Here not all flats in such a block are rectangular! Contrast this with the sample condo Tower blocks.
4.1 For example, The Bayshore is called a "point" block. Here, even if all units in a tower are triangular shape : BUT, BUT, BUT, they are similar and belong to ONE single block with similar layouts.
4.2 The key success factor is that such flats are like "Semi-detached" apartments but on high floors. Why? Here, air circulates often from 2 or more sides of the unit. Much like a semi-detached home.
5. Wherelse all those triangle Housing board flats are often sandwiched in the middle of the "merged" block. While the rest of the flats are mostly rectangular; a few are these not so fantastic ones.
6. That is why, majority of the older HDB 5 room point blocks are equal to "semi-detached" in the air.
7. Thus, don't just look at the interior layout and try to patch it up to look "better". You can path the interior with gold so what??

1. In my opinion, any apartment that is similar to the attachment is a better choice.
2. Here, as I had mentioned; usually there are at least three "openings" e.g. from the bedroom windows; living room windows and either the service balcony and/or windows of the toilet.
3. Each unit of this older generation Housing Development Board (HDB) flat is equivalent to a "semi-detached" home in the sky.
4. Thus, the earlier example of The Bayshore; it is also a Tower Block. And for such Tower Block = Point Block; can easily take on even triangle shape and often; no issue.
5. Compare this to the layout under this posting where the triangle apartment is often "sandwiched" in between other more rectangular shaped plot.

Even if the interior layout plan may not seem fantastic e.g. some have triangular interior layout; some have toilets at wrong locations and even kitchen at NW; overall; a unit / apartment / flat in such tower or "point-block" can be forgiven for it's flaws.
As there is always sufficient vibrant (not blocked) qi flow all year round.
For the attached example of The Bayshore condominium; it always will have good breeze due to the sea just down Under and the land mass above. Thus, due to the high and low pressure during the day and night; wind would constantly move from the sea to land and vice versa depending on the time of day. (The Costa Del Sol condo down under is not an impediment).
