Wellness Destination - a Feng Shui Hotel and Spa
Jay Johnson Tuesday, January 31, 2012 at 9:00AM 
On the tranquil island of ... well, Long Island, New York ... there's an oasis of relaxation and bliss. Is that possible so close to Manhattan's hustle and flow? Absolutely, because the Viana Hotel & Spa is a complex based inside and outside on the principles of feng shui, so there's a special flow of its own going on.
To increase the good vibes of this personal getaway destination, the entire complex was built to LEED certification, so it's GREEN and eco-conscious, too.
Doesn't this look like the dream feng shui interior design job! Imagine being able to use the principles to select direction- and element-appropriate building materials, colors, images, furnishing, and accessories - from the correct location of a fireplace to the nine elements in each headboard and the lotus flower leading to each bath. Take the complete guided tour and see how this complex was designed and built in our featured Video Pick below.
As lead curriculum developer for Sheffield School, I'm fascinated with practical everyday applications for feng shui design. If you're interested in learning more about feng shui and interior design, then I encourage you to explore the Sheffield School, New York, NY. Sheffield began as an Interior Design school in 1985, and then expanded our course offerings to train people in other design-related fields, including Feng Shui, Wedding and Event Planning, and Jewelry Design. With thousands of active students and more than 50,000 graduates, Sheffield has trained more design professionals than any school in the world.
