Founder’s Story
QiWish was founded by Sombat Ng, an interior designer and business entrepreneur with over 25 years of experience across the Asia Pacific region. Throughout his career, he has partnered with many of the world’s most influential organizations—to design workplaces and experiences that inspire people and shape culture.
Yet beyond the success and recognition, Sombat’s life took an unexpected turn. He faced a sudden illness with no clear medical explanation, and modern treatment offered no lasting answers. In search of healing, he turned to the wisdom of Chinese Metaphysics. By rebalancing the energies in his surroundings, he gradually regained his health—an experience that transformed the way he viewed both life and work.
Determined to go deeper, Sombat immersed himself in the study of Chinese Metaphysics, including BaZi and Feng Shui, under world-renowned institutions. He came to see how the ancient Five Elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—hold timeless wisdom that can be applied not only to personal wellbeing, but also to business strategy and everyday living.

Our Philosophy
The foundation of QiWish is rooted in the ancient Chinese philosophy of the Five Elements (Wu Xing)—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Originating thousands of years ago, this system was more than a theory; it was the very framework by which emperors once ruled their dynasties. The balance of the elements guided decisions in governance, agriculture, medicine, architecture, and even warfare—reflecting the belief that harmony between Heaven, Earth, and Man determined the destiny of a nation.
These three realms —Heaven, Earth and Man —remain at the heart of our existence. Heaven represents the time and conditions we are born into; Earth speaks to the environment that surrounds us; Man refers to our choices, actions, and the relationships we cultivate. Together, they shape the course of our lives.
Through BaZi, we uncover each person’s elemental balance—shaping how we think, relate, and experience life—while Feng Shui acts as the bridge to harmonize our outer spaces with our inner selves, creating a holistic system of alignment
At QiWish, we believe that true wellbeing and success arise when the Five Elements are harmonized—within us and around us. In this state of balance, we return to being the best expression of who we are, living with clarity, resilience, and purpose.
