Vastu Tips For Flat
According to Vaastu, the master bedrooms
should be in the southwest corner of the house. If the house
has more than one floor, then the master bedroom should be on
the topmost floor. The ceiling should be in level; as it makes
the energy of the room uniform and helps the occupants keep a
steady state of mind.
The children’s room should be constructed
in the northwest corner. No bedroom should be located in the
southwest direction.
The bathroom should be constructed in the
west or south direction and its drains should flow towards
northeast.
The drawing room should be in northwest,
south or west direction. The furniture should be placed in
south and west directions. Maximum open space should be in
north and east directions.
The kitchen must be situated in the fire
angle, i.e. in southeast. The cook should face east while
cooking. The water tap in kitchen should be in the northeast
direction.
Northeast, northwest, north, west, east corners are best for
a study room. If the study room and place of worship room are
adjacent, then it is considered most favorable.
The store room should be constructed in the southern part of
the building. Grain and other provisions can be stored in the
kitchen or in other rooms and cupboards. Things should not be
stored in box beds, because it causes sleeping disorders.
Daily wastes from the kitchen should be kept covered in the
southwest corner of the kitchen.
The doors should be in the north and east. The waves
emerging from the doors affect the mind of a person who enters
from the door.
Guest room should be in the northwest direction. The room in
this direction is also considered suitable for unmarried
girls.
The rooms in the northern part of the house should be larger
than the rooms in the southern side, by 6-9 inches, and lower
by 1-3 inches. The ideal height of the rooms should be 12-14
feet. The main door should be larger than the inner doors and
all doors should open facing the walls.
All windows should be, at least, 3 feet above ground level,
and at the same level from the top. Window openings should be
on the northern and eastern sides of the buildings.
