A Vastu-compliant home is a residence that follows the principles of Vastu Shastra, an ancient Indian architectural science designed to harmonize living spaces with natural elements. The idea is to promote positive energy, peace, prosperity, and good health by aligning the design and layout of the house with the five key elements of nature—earth, water, fire, air, and space.
The entrance is ideally located in the north-east, north, or east direction to welcome positive energy and good vibes into the home.
Vastu-compliant homes are designed to allow ample natural light and airflow, enhancing mood and well-being.
Light and calming colors are used, and plants or water features are added to maintain the energy balance.
Square or rectangular-shaped plots and rooms are considered ideal, avoiding odd or irregular layouts.
While Vastu isn't legally required, many homebuyers prefer it as a traditional belief system that aligns their home with natural forces. It’s seen as a way to ensure not just physical comfort but energetic well-being.
