Measuring The Facing Direction of a Building
By Joey Yap

There is a difference between Door Facing and Building Facing. Find out the way to measuring the facing of a building.

The Facing of a Property is determined by considering the following factors collectively:

• The orientation of the whole building.
  • Consider which side the building was built intentionally to face.
  • Some buildings are built to face the main road, the beautiful golf course or the seaside.
    
• The most ‘yang’ side of the building
  • Consider which side of the building receives the most ‘yang’ Qi.
  • For example, the main road
    
• The side that receives the most light
  • This is a derivative from the previous point where the side receives most ‘light’ is where it is most yang. Usually the side with the most windows or doors.
    
• The Main Door Facing

Some examples:

Consider the above four points collectively and decide on the Facing Façade of the building. Measure this direction standing with your back to the building looking outwards.
