🏡 Complete Guide to Vastu for Modern Homes
In today’s fast-paced world, modern homes combine style, function, and comfort. But in India, Vastu Shastra – the ancient science of architecture – still plays a vital role in planning harmonious living spaces.
At Benaka Design & Spaces, we design homes that beautifully merge modern aesthetics with Vastu principles. Here’s how you can do the same.
📌 What is Vastu Shastra?
Vastu is an age-old Indian system that aligns your home with the natural elements — Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space — to bring peace, prosperity, and positivity into your life.
🔑 Key Vastu Principles for Modern Homes
1. Plot Orientation
- Always prefer North or East-facing plots for better energy flow.
- Avoid plots at T-junctions or with irregular shapes unless corrected by design.
2. Entrance Direction
- The main door should ideally face East or North-East.
- It should be the most prominent and welcoming part of the home.
3. Kitchen Placement
- The best zone for the kitchen is the South-East (Agni corner).
- Avoid placing the kitchen directly below or above the pooja room or bathroom.
4. Pooja Room or Meditation Space
- Place it in the North-East corner for spiritual energy and calmness.
5. Master Bedroom Location
- Ideally in the South-West corner to enhance stability and relationships.
6. Living Room Vastu
- Should be in the North or East side to promote openness and communication.
- Furniture placement must not block windows or airflow.
7. Bathroom and Septic Tank
- Place bathrooms in the North-West or West. Avoid South-East or North-East.
🛋️ Merging Vastu with Modern Design
You don’t have to compromise modern layouts for Vastu compliance. Smart design ensures:
- Open floor plans still follow directional balance.
- Sleek furniture doesn’t interfere with energy zones.
- Natural lighting and ventilation are Vastu-friendly and stylish.
