===== 5. Feng Shui (風水) – Harmony of flows (China) =====

Core idea
Human flourishing depends on the alignment of people, objects, and environment with natural and energetic flows (qi). Orientation, boundaries, thresholds, and movement patterns matter.

FOW connections
* Cognitive performance – Map “good flow” to actual behavioral data: desire lines, noise patterns, decision bottlenecks. Feng Shui becomes a metaphorical bridge to sensor-informed workplace tuning.
* Hybrid work – Thinking about flows across home, third places, and office as a single energy system: what drains people, what restores them, and how spatial transitions affect that.
* Design practice – Treat circulation, sightlines, and adjacency not just as efficiency problems but as energetic questions: where does attention pool? Where does stress accumulate? That’s consistent with universal needs around wayfinding, restoration, and intuitive spatial organization.
