What is Vastu Shastra?
Vastu Shastra is a traditional planning system that aligns building zones with directional energies. It focuses on balancing light, ventilation, and functional placement in the home.
Key zones
The north-east is associated with clarity and water, the south-east with fire (kitchen), and the south-west with stability (master bedroom). Correct zoning can improve flow and comfort.
How to use this check
Use this tool as a preliminary assessment. A professional Vastu consultant can assess slope, nearby roads, and plot geometry before making structural changes.
Practical considerations
Ventilation, access to sunlight, and local bylaws can be more important than strict Vastu rules. Balance practical constraints with cultural preferences.
Does Vastu guarantee results?
No. Vastu is a guidance system. It can influence design choices but cannot guarantee outcomes.
Can existing homes be improved?
Yes. You can improve lighting, declutter key zones, and adjust room usage without structural changes.
Is north-facing always best?
North and east are often preferred, but plot shape, access roads, and climate also matter.
What about irregular plots?
Irregular plots can still work with smart zoning, courtyard planning, and careful placement of heavy zones in the south-west.
