Cracking the Vastu Code in Dubai’s Sub-Cardinal Maze

Introduction

Finding a Vastu-compliant dwelling in Dubai is a unique challenge. In Vastu, the scriptures advise that houses built on the cardinal axis like North, East, South, and West are more auspicious and prosperous than houses built on the sub-cardinal axis. But in Dubai, the majority of the city is designed on the sub-cardinal axis, with most properties facing towards the southeast, southwest, northwest, or northeast. Now, these directions have their own blend of advantageous and disadvantageous energy, so it really becomes difficult to get a Vastu-perfect home.

A client wanted to buy a house with Vastu requirements that included a positive entrance, a swimming pool, and a very beautiful view from the backyard. In a few interactions with the client, I explained to them that their choice was absolutely correct, but due to the designed orientation of the city, it might be very difficult to find such a property. The client was willing to wait for the completely positive home for his future. So, for a few months, the team researched different localities and surrounding communities, and then, after much painstaking effort, we eventually found the house that fit the vision of the client.

Problem Statement

The biggest problem with the client in this case was a hard-core and unrelenting longing for a swimming pool. The placement of any water body, including a swimming pool, is of great significance in Vastu. If a swimming pool is positioned in the North, it provides one with bountiful opportunities and calmness. When positioned in the Southwest, it creates severe disturbances in life, such as major health disorders, hefty monetary losses, and jittery relationships.

It’s worth noting that in a lot of the divorce cases (reported with Vastu associations), we have found some major dosha in the Southwest. Either there was a pool in the house or the entrance was in the direction of the Southwest of the house. With this knowledge, we could not advise any Northeast-facing house to the client.

The perfect solution was to find a house on the East-West axis. That way, the pool could have been located in the East or North, as both these directions are considered auspicious. But, the hunt for such a house on the cardinal axis, while also meeting other stringent requirements of Vastu, seemed very challenging.

After much searching, we finally identified a south-facing property. The client was extremely excited and ready to proceed, but their spiritual adviser refused to approve the purchase of a south-facing home. This popular myth of ‘South-facing house is not good’ (though right being on the auspicious pada of South) changed the client’s mind. (We will talk about this popular myth in some other blog.) Consequently, we had to restart the search.

Criteria Fulfillment for Apt Solution

After the client decided against the south-facing house, the team’s search became even more focused. We already knew that we had only a few options in hand:

Find an East facing house with open garden in North
A North facing house with an open garden in East
A West facing house with an open backyard in East.

This entailed detailed due diligence of available properties and an understanding of how the requirements would match the market realities of Dubai.

Finally, an East-facing corner unit with a large open garden in the North was found. At first glance, the house fulfilled most of the client’s major requirements. There could be no better option than this—having a house that welcomes the rising sun and an open North that could accommodate a decent-sized pool. The house was meeting all said prerequisites but had a few drawbacks as well.

The property had to facilitate some structural changes. The client needed an extra bedroom on the ground floor for their elderly parents, but this property didn’t have any guest bedroom on the ground floor. And the major problem was the existence of a toilet in the Northeast because it’s a major Vastu violation.

It was a challenging task, as it required rectifications in the structure to make it a Vastu-compliant house. Considering the challenges of finding the right orientation and meeting all said requisites, balancing the shape of the plot and doing structural changes seemed to be an easier task. Hence, the client went ahead and finally signed the papers.

Methodology Applied & Solutions

Now was the step of concept development and incorporating the wishes of the client and keeping Vastu principles in mind. We did countless brainstorming sessions with engineers and contractors to consider vital structural changes which had to both meet the requirements at hand and bring about renewed energizing balance to the property. And this required great foresight in proper planning and a number of modifications.

The main concern was the main entrance, which we shifted to the ‘Jayanta and Indra’ padas, being the most auspicious padas for the house.

Image 1 (before) and Image 2 (after)- Primary attention was given to opening north side windows to welcome more light from North.

The kitchen, being originally in the Southwest, was relocated to the Northwest, which is considered the second most favorable place for the kitchen after the Southeast. Additionally, the client’s required pool was built in the side garden towards the North.

Image 3- Pool construction in the side garden towards North.

We also balanced the placement of beds inside the rooms as per client’s choice at zones duly appearing under West Southwest, Southeast, Northwest, and Northeast—good energy elements that rightfully travel through the proper areas. The toilets were relocated to the East of Southeast, South Southwest, and West Northwest—zones that are more favorable for such facilities. Also, an underground water tank was built to activate small patch of garden was not serving any purpose earlier (refer image 4 and 5). With the help of water tank, plants could flourish and grow in the area. It’s worth nothing that since plants possess life and their own energies, they can activate any unused or dead land.

Image 4 and 5

We also made space for the client’s requested temple area and home office. The home office was located in the Southwest and West-Southwest facing North, which are areas that promote professional skills and stability. We also balanced home’s energy by activating and placing Vastu plates down into the ground before any other construction.

Conclusion

I’ve always believed in the power of Vastu to create harmonious spaces. This case study is a testament to that belief. A phased and segmented manner in the processes of search and modification of the property conduces to innumerable challenges and complexities. Last but not least, it is by the patience and dedication of the client that the project was taken to conclusion with successful results. The final outcome not only met the client’s initial requirements but also ensured that the home would be a source of positive energy and prosperity for years to come.

Through this project, I’ve had the opportunity to demonstrate my skills as a Vastu Consultant and Numerology Specialist. Addressing complex challenges and providing tailored solutions, while always respecting the client’s wishes and the principles of Vastu, has been truly rewarding for me. I’m grateful for the chance to have turned a potential problem into a positive outcome.

Zero Energy Building Designs for Community Buildings

By Maadhur 0 Comments

In the wake of escalating global challenges such as climate change, resource depletion, and environmental pollution, the construction industry is under increasing pressure to innovate. With building methods that revolve around fossil fuels, one can hardly afford to keep the conventional methods in place.

In recent times, both commercial as well as residential buildings have become enormous threats to global pollution. That’s why, there’s very acute need for a shift to a much more sustainable solution. This is particularly an urgent shift for community buildings because they are key focal points in public life and thus potentially great causes of environmental impact.

With global organizations such as the United Nations imposing stringent sustainability targets, many nations are enforcing regulations aimed at curtailing emissions. Companies and communities are following this up with Zero Energy Buildings—structures that generate as much energy as they consume, largely coming from renewable sources.

Introduction to ZEBs (Zero Energy Buildings)
Zero-Energy Buildings are related to the most recent development in sustainable design. A ZEB is a building that produces enough renewable energy on-site to meet its annual energy consumption needs. That is an idea far from the rudimentary notion of just saving energy; more, it is integrating superior technologies, more sustainable materials, and renewable energy systems into building designs that have distinctly minimized environmental impacts.

The objectives of a ZEB are to lower energy use by efficient design, and generate the required energy from renewable sources—such as the sun, wind, and geothermal fuels. By this means, zero energy buildings result in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, lowering dependence on natural resource use, and benefiting community well-being.

The Human-Based Principles of Zero Energy Building Design

Making the Building Envelope More Efficient
The building envelope—the physical barrier between the interior and exterior of a structure—plays a critical role as far as ZEB energy performance is concerned. A building envelope that is optimized will reduce the requirements for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning through reduced heat gain or loss.

There are various ways of achieving this:

High-performance insulation: Insulation materials help control temperature changes inside buildings. In this regard, insulation applied to opaque surfaces with a low solar heat gain coefficient contributes to energy efficiency.
Shading and Orientation: Properly designed overhangs and shades can significantly reduce solar heat gain, especially in climates with intense sunlight. Additionally, orienting the building to maximize natural light while minimizing direct sun exposure further enhances energy efficiency.
Advanced Glazing Systems: Thicker double or triple-glazed windows with low-emissivity coating would increase the level of thermal performance and the subsequent energy savings during heating and cooling.

Enhancing Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is the foundation of every ZEB. The lesser the energy used, the less the demand on renewable energy supply, making it relatively easy to achieve zero energy status. Principal measures for energy efficiency are:

Smart Thermostats: These devices manage the indoor temperature according to occupancy in the house and weather. Smart thermostats can greatly reduce energy usage by giving appropriate HVAC runtime.
Efficient Lighting Systems: Lighting represents a large share of the electrical energy requirements in a building. Application of smart lighting systems with occupancy sensors and LED bulbs can dramatically reduce wastage. For instance, LED lights use up against 75% fewer energy than the incandescent bulb requirements and last way longer.
Optimization of HVAC: High-efficiency HVAC systems combine heat recovery chillers and underfloor air distribution to boost a building’s energy performance considerably. Moreover, passive cooling methods and natural ventilation decrease the need for mechanical cooling.

Harnessing Renewable Energy Sources
Finally, a ZEB can only be realised through the incorporation of Renewable Energy technologies. The energy-efficient measures will bring down the building’s energy demand to minimum so that robust renewable sources provide energy to satisfy reduced needs. Listed below are some of the key renewable energy technologies.

Photovoltaic Solar Panels: PV panels convert sunlight into electricity. This empowers more secure and cleaner sources of energy into the buildings, since a majority of them have roofs facing due south and that captures more sunlight in the course of the day.
Geothermal Heat Pumps: These harness the stable underground temperatures of the Earth to provide building both heating and cooling. High efficiency and no direct emissions make geothermal heat pumps, by whatever measure, a choice candidate for ZEBs.
Wind Energy: Provided there is a good prevailing wind in the area, turbines would be greatly useful in generating electricity. Though not as common in urban areas, it is still possible to have wind energy for buildings within the countryside or suburban community.
Solar Windows and Smart Shades: These new technologies augment the potential of conventional solar panels by harnessing ‘free’ sunlight—energy that would be wasted if it were not used intentionally—in order to produce massive amounts of usable energy on-site. Smart shades are continually exploring the natural light coming in from windows.

Conclusion
Zero Energy Buildings epitomize an example of a shift in the manner in which we can design and construct structures in any setting. Since environmental issues are showing no dip as time progresses, so is the need for ZEBs. We thus can protect our environment through sustainable design practices and the use of new technology in the creation of revolutionary buildings that provide service to society both today and long into the future. The transition to ZEBs is not just a trend—it’s a necessary step towards a more sustainable and resilient future.

Indian Architectural Theory – Contemporary Uses of Vastu Vidya

By Maadhur 0 Comments

In the rapidly evolving world of modern architecture, it is an enriching experience to combine ancient principles like Vastu Vidya. Vastu Vidya is an India-based theory of architecture with guidelines for assimilating structures into the natural forces to foster well-being, along with an aesthetics sense of form and function.

Despite Vastu Vidya’s potential, skepticism persists, making it essential to address doubts and build trust among clients and professionals. This post talks about how Vastu Vidya is adapted in contemporary architecture and how skepticism can be effectively addressed and confidence can be built for Vastu-compliant design.

Understanding Vastu Vidya—Deeply Rooted Tradition

Vastu Vidya, or Vastu Shastra, is more than aesthetics. It is a philosophy in which the environment and its functionalities have an influence on the very fabrics of a building, carried out to generate a chock-full, highly creative, teeming space with positive energy. This ancient science is based on the belief that the physical winding of a community has direct influence on its prosperity, well-being, and health. Vastu Vidya aims at making balanced and harmonious settings that are aligned with elements of nature such as light, air, water, and cardinal directions.

The Fundamental Tenets of Vastu Vidya

Harmony with Nature: Vastu Vidya establishes this principle by which the orientation of a building with the cardinal directions is done and decides what elements the building will be open to; for example, sunlight, pattern of winds, the magnetic field of the earth. Keeping all this in view, the north-facing entrance is marked with much auspiciousness, and east-facing living areas invite beneficial air and sunlight.
Energy Flow (Pranashastra): Vastu believes in the existence of subtle energy fields that pervade around us. All the placements of room, door, and window are so designed that the free flow of positive energy is maintained to the maximum, creating an aura of well-being and vitality.
Five Elements (Panchabhutas): Balance between Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space is very important in Vastu. Physical planning aspects, such as materials of natural origin, efficiency in the application of Water, and proper positioning of the kitchen for enhancement of Fire, are all in line with these principles and ensure harmony in the premises.

Incorporating Vastu into Modern Design

Modern Materials: Vastu Vidya can incorporate sustainable materials like recycled glass and bamboo, ensuring that modern advancements complement traditional principles.
Technology Integration: Modern technology can help in enhancing Vastu practices—for example, skylights for natural light and advanced ventilation systems for improved air cycle.
Flexible Solutions in Design: Open floor plans, popular in contemporary design, can be adapted to Vastu guidelines through the strategic placement of furniture and partitions, maintaining the harmonious flow of energy.

Benefits of Vastu-Compliant Buildings
Vastu-compliant buildings endorse health and mental well-being through proper ventilation and natural light, supported by orderly spacing. Such a setting is therefore conducive not only to health but to work output and is increasingly getting noticed in modern day by architects and their clients.

Vastu creates habitats in which success and abundance can thrive by piecing together spaces according to the laws of the natural, revitalizing flow of energy. This is a claim that holds the greatest appeal to business owners and home owners looking to increase their prosperity.

Addressing Skepticism and Building Trust
The first and foremost challenge for the promotion of Vastu Vidya is to bust popular myths surrounding the concept. To most individuals, it is associated with superstition or traditional thinking. Scientific principles and basic advantages of Vastu should therefore be represented before clients and professionals in promoting its practical benefits.

Comprehensive courses on Vastu Shastra can remove the gap in knowledge and enable people to trust such knowledge. It increases the ability of architects, designers, and engineers to apply Vastu principles with confidence and ease. Programs showing the tangible benefits of Vastu can also be beneficial in educating clients.

Practical Integration of Vastu Vidya in Modern Architecture

Site Selection and Orientation: Selection of a suitable site and orientation of the building in the right direction form the first step in integrating Vastu with modern architecture through the proper ways of aligning the structures with cardinal directions to harness positive energies.
Spatial Planning: Effective spatial planning, according to Vastu guidelines, ensures proper placement of rooms, doors, and windows, creating layouts that promote harmony and positive energy flow.
Aesthetic Factor: Vastu Vidya, in addition to enhancing functionality and creating an energy balance, also contributes towards aesthetics. The selection of color schemes in rooms, materials used for construction, and style of decoration done within them according to Vastu principles makes them visually harmonious. For instance, one may enhance the looks of a certain space—like using colors associated with a certain direction, or choosing materials reflecting the element earth, thus elevating its feel completely.
Sustainable Design: Sustainability is a core value of modern architecture and goes well with Vastu Vidya. Harmony with nature, in its principle, is quite well adjusted with the principles of sustainable practices. Some examples would be the use of natural materials such as bamboo or recycled wood, and designs to conserve water and rainwater harvesting—all within Vastu, which forms an emphasis on the balance of the five elements.

Conclusion
Integrating Vastu Vidya with modern architecture offers numerous benefits, from enhanced well-being to increased financial prosperity. The integration of Vastu Vidya with modern architecture respects the ancient wisdom overlaying a delightful marvel of modern age architecture, creating harmonious, functional, and attractive spaces. Vastu architecture is one step toward a more balanced and prosperous built environment.

Green Roofs and Living Walls as per Urban Biodiversity

By Maadhur 0 Comments

Sustainable and resilient urban environments are increasingly becoming imperative with the continuous expansion of cities and more intense climate change. Part of the solutions toward these promising concepts are green roofs and living walls. They don’t just enhance urban space aesthetics, but they function in quite an important way towards the promotion of urban biodiversity. Green infrastructures, like those advocated by Vedasrivastu, are nowadays broadly recognized as key elements to create sustainable, eco-friendly urban planning with several ecological benefits ensuring the functionality and resilience of the urban ecosystem. For those seeking the best vastu consultation in Dubai, Vedasrivastu also integrates these sustainable practices into their expert recommendations, enhancing both the ecological and vastu aspects of urban spaces.”

Green roofs as part of urban development biodiversity
Green roofs are vegetative covers considered to support plant life on building rooftops. These may range right from simple grass coverings to really complex ecosystems with shrubs, trees, and even small wetlands. One great advantage of green roofs is the ability to increase green space in urban areas, which mostly comprise impermeable surfaces such as concrete and asphalt.

Biodiversity Boost: Green roofs provide a habitat for various plant species, insects, birds, and other wildlife that would probably not survive under city conditions. In fact, it could be said that the introduction of indigenous flora will act as an excellent lure to pollinators such as bees and butterflies, which are an integral part of ecosystems. Further, green roofs can act as stepping stones for wildlife and create corridors linking fragmented habitats within the city.

Climate Resilience: Besides reconstructing biodiversity, green roofs help build urban resilience because of the reduction in the urban heat island effect, which results from human activities. Vegetation on green roofs absorbs heat and provides evaporative cooling, dust binding, and releases oxygen, consequently reducing surrounding temperatures and lessening the reliance on energy-intensive air conditioning.

Stormwater Management: Green roofs are great in stormwater management. By absorbing and retaining rainwater, they help in mitigating peak flows of stormwater in urban environments and consequently, lessen the burden on urban drainage systems. This will also feed the vegetation on the roof properly so that the green roof is healthy and supports urban biodiversity.

Vertical Gardens with Horizontal Impact
Vertical green walls, also called living walls, refer to self-sufficient vertical structures covered with vegetation. These types of walls are always located either on the exterior or in the interior of built structures, and are currently practically found and adopted within urban centers as a way of countering space limitations. Just like green roofs, living walls render an array of ecological benefits that enhance urban biodiversity.

Habitat Creation: Living walls create both habitat opportunities and unique habitats for different plant species and the associated wildlife. While traditional gardens are constrained by the availability of horizontal space, living walls take advantage of vertical surfaces, making it possible to introduce greenery in densely built environments. These walls can hold many species from well-adapted structures that form mosses, ferns, and climbing plants, to completely foreign ones.

Purify Air: Living walls improve air quality by increasing the filtering rate of pollutants from the air. The walls absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through the leaves of the plants, thereby purifying the air not only with regard to air quality but also by trapping dust and particulates. This helps improve the air not only for us but also for urban wildlife, which is often quite delicate.

Temperature Regulation: Living walls help regulate the temperature in very much the same manner as green roofs; they provide natural insulation. They insulate the building from excess sunlight, hence reducing the need to use man-made cooling so as to save energy.

Challenges and Considerations
The benefits of green roofs and living walls are many, but challenges remain in maximizing their potential for enhancing biodiversity in urban environments. To add, maintenance is one of the real challenges; living walls and green roofs both host vegetation systems that, if left untended, can fail. Such failure will involve loss of biodiversity, possibly life-threatening problems in the structures, and degraded social acceptance. The maintenance includes watering, periodic pruning, and the occasional replacement of plants.

Not all green roofs and living walls are created equal in terms of biodiversity. The important part is related to the choice of plant species; a diverse mix of native plants can contribute to increasing the ecological value of such green spaces. On the other hand, the use of non-native or ornamental species of plants might in some way support local fauna but also disturb existing ecosystems.

While initial costs of green roof and living wall installations can prove to be a bit of a hurdle for some builders and property owners, long-term payoffs in energy cost savings and prospectively through property value can often far outweigh these prices. Public policies on financial incentives, technical support, and regulation should also be in place so that proper guidance can be achieved and help ease the implementation process.

Conclusion
More than architectural tendencies, green roofs and living walls are designed for biodiversity enhancement and the development of truly resilient cities. As more people move into urban areas, the demand for sustainable green infrastructure will rise quickly.

Green roofs and living walls can be used in urban planning to increase urban biodiversity, improve air quality, regulate temperatures, and create numerous green areas both for people and for wildlife to enjoy. As we move forward, it is crucial that these green infrastructures are designed, implemented, and maintained with biodiversity and ecological resilience in mind, ensuring that our cities remain vibrant and livable for generations to come.

However, merely knowing its significance may not be enough and it is also important to utilize the flow of energies to an appropriate benefit as well. A professional Vastu Consultant can be helpful in putting these principles into practice and work towards upliftment of positive energies; and at the same time avoid the area that can trigger any initiation or development of negative energies.

Understanding the laws of Vibrations

By Maadhur 0 Comments

Vastu Shastra is more than just readjusting furniture in favor of the direction; it is a whole belief system with the principles rooted in the interconnected vibrations of universal energy field. The underlying belief system talks about harnessing the cosmic vibrations with the living spaces and aligning these to achieve optimum harmony. The ultimate goal of vastu Shastra is cultivating a living space that is in harmony with the universal vibrations. As per vastu Shastra expert from Dubai, vibrations, energy, cosmic frequency are all a part of the living space that should be managed properly as it greatly impacts our lives.

Direction and Vibrations

Emphasis is on specific directions that hold different vibrations; each direction comprises different elemental energy. For instance, north is related to water, south to fire, east to air and west direction to earth. When these are properly aligned with the right placement of items, furniture, and elements are matched with the right vibration it creates harmony.

Vibrations & Five elements

We are familiar with five elements of vastu Shastra that comprise- space, air, water, fire and earth, these play important role in laws of vibrations too, as when these are aligned in the right manner then harmony is created within the space, using water features in the north-east direction helps in creating financial stability.

Vibrational Laws

Prana

Law of vibration is related to the energy flow or the “Prana” within a particular space. When this space is hindered due to obstructions, clutter, improper placement of items, then it causes adverse effects and backfires, the vibration is disrupted leading to experiencing negativity within the occupants. It is therefore encouraged that the space occupied or the dwelling shall be clutter-free, kept clean, proper ventilation and natural light is essential for positive energy flow.

Sacred Geometry

Sacred geometry is all about harnessing positive vibrations, the ratio and dimensions incorporated within a space helps resonate on positive level with cosmic forces. Utilizing geometric principles with vibrational laws helps in creating an abundant living space environment.

Main Entrance Placement

It is essential that the primary entrance to the house should be as per the laws of vibrations that state, strategic and specific placement for harnessing good fortune and positivity. For this very reason, often east direction is preferred as the best entrance direction.

Zoning

Strategic division of space is done in vastu Shastra, each zone is designated with relevance of serving specific purpose. It is all about creating balance of vibrations within a working or living space or area that would benefit the individual occupying it.

Benefits of Harnessing Laws of Vibrations

Enhanced prosperity is experienced when you align with the laws of vibrations.
Financial stability is yet another positive aspect of optimizing positive vibrations.
Experiencing improved health both mental and physical is all due to the fact that the space is aligned with right vibrations.
Harmonious relationships are easy established when you understand laws of vibrations and apply it accordingly.
Productivity and focus are enhanced when work spaces are aligned with positive vibrational frequency.
Spiritual growth is experienced and deepened with the universal vibration and it becomes easy to achieve inner serenity.

It is essential to build an environment that would be full of harmony and prosperity. Vastu Shastra one such ancient science that is vested in the principles of harnessing the cosmic energy and channeling it in a way that would help achieve harmony in living spaces. Vastu expert from Dubai talks all about how to blend traditional vatu with present day modern architectural requirements to optimize positive cosmic energy in dwelling space.

Vastu and Architectural Requirements
The panchbhutas or the five elements are the fundamentals of vastu Shastra:

Earth- Representing support and stability, therefore utilizing good construction materials and choosing the right kind of land to build property is crucial to harness this energy.
Water- It is representative of freshness and fluidity, placing water related sources will help in channelizing this energy in a positive manner.
Fire- The energy of transformation that influences electrical appliances, light and heat elements within the house you occupy, therefore rightful placement of these is a must.
Air- Signifies movement and life, proper ventilation, natural lighting, having windows placed in the right directions is essential to create an environment of fluid air flow.
Space- All about expansion, the layout of the house should be such that it enables in leaving space for accommodation of positive energy.

Principles of Vastu Shastra in Architectural Requirement

Site and orientation- The shape, orientation and slope of the plot are essential. Ideal shapes are rectangular and square, primary entrance should be east or north.
Rooms- Each room should be as per the directional energy:

Northeast: Should be used for the purpose of prayer rooms and meditation spaces.
Southwest: Are ideal for building master bedrooms, it helps harness stability.
Southeast: Is good to build kitchens, this is the direction of fire element.
Northwest: Should be used as guest rooms and bathrooms.

Prime entrance: It is the portal of cosmic energy, therefore it should be kept free of any hindrance, clutter and kept clean, well-lit and aesthetically pleasing.
Ventilation: Should be done in a manner to enable the entrance of natural light and enable proper ventilation as it impacts the health of the occupants.
Furniture: Placing the furniture in such a manner that it would not obstruct the flow of energy, ideal placement of heavy furniture is in south-west direction to provide stability
Colors: Colors should be as per direction and the governing element of the space. Rule of thumb is to use soothing colors to exude serenity and tranquility of a space, using vibrant colors would enhance the energy of the space.

Vastu Shastra Tips to Integrate Traditional Vastu with Modern Architecture and Interiors

The modern styled French windows should be definitely planned; however, it is important to plan those towards the North wall and they should also be long and wide.
The windows should allow for the morning light to filter through without any obstructions.
It is important that the French windows or the long windows should not have a South West direction and we should now allow for entry of energy or heat from the South West direction.
Placing indoor plants helps in purifying the air of the house and enhances natural energy of the space, but remember to avoid plats with thorns.
As per traditional Vastu, kitchens were always kept hidden from the main living area of a home; however as per modern designing and trends, open kitchens are largely preferred. Open kitchens definitely add charm to the living room or adjacent dining room but it is important to note that kitchen energies may promote negative energies and can raise conflicts. Therefore, it is important to use an attractive partition/slider to separate the living room from the kitchen. As per modern day design and architecture, the kitchen partition offers a demarcation between
kitchen and dining area, offers an organized and open feel and also a great blend of functionality and aesthetics.
Keep your dwelling clutter-free for free flow of energy.
Using mirrors in the right manner require placing mirrors in north or north-east directions to improve light conditions and energy of the given space. Mirrors should never face the bed.
Incorporating auspicious symbols would mean your home will be filled with positive vibrations, symbols like Swastika, OM and images of deities are vital.
