HaHa! I found a mistake in your interior decorating.
When I was in my Chinese friend's home, I asked what was a decoration on her front door. She said it was a symbol for prosperity, but it is the tradition for it to be hung upside-down. Yours is right-side up.

No mistake. That decoration is on the fridge. Only the one on the outside of the front door is traditionally hung upside down. It is dying custom though. Most are right way up now.
