The role of small piers is to bear loads, which will affect the structure and cause safety hazards.
Columns are straight, beams are horizontal, and beams and columns are used to support the weight of the house, so they are all indispensable. The only difference is whether they appear in a conspicuous position. If it appears in a conspicuous place, it will hinder the feng shui in the living room, so you need to cover it up as much as possible.
Most columns will have beams, so sitting near the column edge will often be crushed by the beams, so try to avoid sitting near the column edge. Some people like to put a sofa between two pillars, thinking that it makes good use of space. Actually, this is not right. The reason is that most columns have beams. If you sit next to pillars, you can support them with beams. In fact, the beams are just like being humiliated by people's legs, and their development and vitality are suppressed, which is a taboo in geomantic omen. If the cabinet is placed between two pillars, although there is a beam pressing the top, it is a cabinet rather than a person, so the problem is not big.
