This book explores the unique merger of eastern design theories
with western building methodology. More specifically, it examines
Feng Shui principles in the Form School which was synthesized for
the design of prototype of cancer treatment facility. For many
centuries, Feng Shui has made a significant contribution in design
in the eastern world. In western society, the primary premise
during the design of built environment involves analysis and
interpretation of measurable scientific data. This scientific
approach has become a general norm for many designers. Although
Feng Shui principles gained popularity in western countries in the
last fifteen years, many professionals still view these principles
to be lacking in a stable scientific foundation. This book
challenges the notion of concept of Feng Shui being based on
superstition with limited value in design practice. In addition, it
illustrates the potential of combining these eastern philosophies
with western principles. The study is generally catered to
professionals in Design and Cultural fields who possess interest in
Feng Shui theory.
