What seems an initial weakness in Feng Shui--Creating Environments, namely its American-TV-documentary style, turns out to be a clever tactic for illustrating the principles of the ancient Chinese art of design. Feng Shui, which translates as "wind and water", is based on the idea that one's surroundings affect the flow of energy in every area of life. In the last couple of years it's become a fashionable design element for businesses, restaurants and retail outlets, but applying it at home still remains a mystery. Feng Shui makes the point that it does not have to be complicated. It also takes on its critics who dismiss the philosophy as common sense by agreeing that it is indeed common sense--backed by the principles of energy and nature. Though the case studies, which include successful design consultants, appear too American to be relevant to British businesses and homes, this is nonetheless fascinating and useful viewing. As Grand Master Lin Yun and practitioner Deborah Gee provide information and analysis, it all begins to make sense. This programme should work for you whether you're familiar with the concept of Feng Shui, or whether it's totally new to you. At the very least you'll be inspired to rearrange your furniture.--Lorna V
