2.Material combination: Ceramic basin (earth) and stainless steel hardware (gold) are combined to form a cycle of earth generating metal and metal generating water.

4. Comparison between expert opinions and user practices
| group | main proposition | Typical cases |
|---|---|---|
| Feng shui master | Emphasis on orientation priority, it is recommended to adjust the bathroom position according to the sitting direction of the house | Bathrooms in houses facing south should be located in the northwest |
| designer | Pay attention to the balance between practicality and aesthetics, and use the Five Elements as an auxiliary reference | Hidden drainage system reduces the visual impact of “water” |
| owner practice | Use "local adjustment" strategies, such as adding specific decorations | Hanging metal wind chimes in the bathroom to resolve "water problems" |
5. Controversies and future trends
The controversial points that have emerged in recent discussions mainly focus on whether smart bathroom equipment (such as electronic toilets) introduces the "fire" element (circuit belongs to fire), and how to quantify the five elements balance standard. Future trends show that young people are more inclined to combine the Five Elements theory with scientific design principles rather than completely following traditional norms.
In summary, the bathroom space uses "water" as the main five-element attribute, but the balance of the five elements needs to be achieved through materials, colors and layout. It is recommended that readers make personalized adjustments based on the specific house structure and family members' horoscopes, rather than copying a general plan.
