Colors are key to the Chinese art of feng shui ("Fung Shway"), a system of placement whose simplicity and ecological good sense have struck such a chord recently in the West. Now Lin Yun and Sarah Rossbach, well known for their introduction to the West of feng shui, have written a fully illustrated guide to color application in all areas of life: home, garden, clothes, food, environment, health, and fortune-telling. In LIVING COLOR readers will find not only answers to the most common color questions-what color to pick for the new sofa? What color to wear on a job interview or to clinch an important deal? What colors for romance?-but also rules for a balanced and harmonious life based upon no less an authority than Tao-the way of all living things.

Esta antigua sabiduria de la geomancia o ubicacion de las cosas -que en Asia es tenida en cuenta incluso por arquitectos celebres al construir rascacielos- se difunde hoy como reguero de polvora en Occidente. El arte del feng shui ensena a disponer los edificios, habitaciones y muebles a fin de armonizarlos con la naturaleza y el entorno y crear asi un ambiente prospero y saludable. Bajo la supervision del profesor chino Lin Yun, Sarah Rossbach explica los conceptos basicos del feng shui y brinda ejemplos concretos para su aplicacion. Esta interesante guia se dirige tanto a disenadores y arquitectos como a todo aquel que busca optimizar su energia, su creatividad y, en definitiva, su calidad de vida. 'La teoria del feng shui es que una fuerza vital fluye a traves de todas las cosas -construc-ciones, colinas, rios, gente- y que la manipulacion de esta fuerza mediante la orientacion apropiada de las estructuras fisicas puede mejorar la suerte, la prosperidad y la salud de una persona [...] Entre los libros mas serios y utiles, el de Sarah Rossbach interpreta el estilo tibetano de feng shui de Lin Yun. Penetra mas profundamente que otros en el feng shui y en otras antiguas artes populares -la lectura de manos, la astrologia, el I Ching- y ofrece 'remedios' de diseno.' The New York Times
