"Feng shui Is the ancient Chinese art of creating an optimum environment for Its users," says Cliff. It's about harnessing and reacting to Qi, a vital energy force, of our surroundings, traditionally thought to Improve wealth, longevity and happiness.
"As our home Is our refuge," Cliff adds, "we need to feel as comfortable and happy as we can." There's no point in creating a space that you don't want to live In and enjoy watching your team kill It week to week.
While TV size ultimately comes down to presence (and whether you actually want to see everything or not), there Is a way to accurately measure It according to Cliff. "The TV should take up about 20-40% of your field of view." You might be thinking, how would I measure that? What even Is 20% of my field of vision? Well Cliff has a simple hack.
"My general rule Is that the TV should be roughly the size of a sheet of a letter-size sheet of paper, held at arms-length, which Is about a 30% field of view." Phew, we can do that.
"The rule Is to never place a TV opposite a window as that would pick up reflections; conversely never put It In front a window as It would be backlit," warns Cliff. Instead, try to keep It at 90-degree angle from the window. This will also help keep nosy neighbours from peeking In to see what you're watching. No one wants that sort of judgment!
