Dear Anon,

In your case, frankly, I would advise you to take up option 2.

As you have correctly mentioned, Option 1, especially with the railway line running diagonally behind the office is unfavourable.

Option 3 - does not have back support and also not good if one cannot see the door.

Overall, do give priority to Shapes and Form Feng Shui - which is Option 2.

This is more important than facing your favourable direction.

Thus, it is strongly recommended to go for Option 2. You can still consider option 1, but make sure that it is screened out e.g. using blinds. What one cannot see, will no longer remain a threat.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
