n the realm of architecture and design, the principles of
IVastu Shastra have transcended time, bridging ancient
wisdom with contemporary needs. As industries and
commerce expand their horizons, the infusion of Vastu
Shastra into modern architectural practices has garnered
significant attention. This ancient Indian architectural
science, rooted in the harmony between nature and built
environments, offers invaluable insights that resonate
profoundly in today’s industrial and commercial
landscapes.
With its core philosophy centred around balance and
alignment, Vastu Shastra presents a holistic approach to
designing spaces. In an era where functionality meets
aesthetics, incorporating Vastu principles in industrial and
commercial architecture offers numerous benefits. It
advocates for the seamless integration of natural elements,
ensuring a balance between a space’s physical and
metaphysical aspects.
One of the primary advantages of integrating Vastu
principles lies in its potential to enhance productivity and
well-being within industrial and commercial settings. By
optimizing spatial layouts and orientations, Vastu
encourages the free flow of positive energy (prana),
fostering an environment conducive to creativity, focus, and
efficiency. The strategic placement of entrances,
workstations, and utility areas aligns with Vastu tenets,
promoting a harmonious atmosphere that nurtures business
growth and employee welfare.
Vastu Shastra offers guidelines for optimizing space
utilization in industrial and commercial structures. From
warehouses to office complexes, adhering to Vastu
principles in design and layout planning can lead to better
utilization of available space. This includes considerations
for arranging machinery, storage areas, and circulation
paths, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow.
Vastu principles advocate for eco-friendly architectural
practices in an age where sustainability is paramount. Vastu
aligns with the modern ethos of environmentally

responsible construction by emphasizing the significance of
natural light, ventilation, and the use of eco-conscious
materials. By promoting the integration of sustainable
elements, Vastu-enabled structures benefit the occupants
and reduce the environmental footprint of industrial and
commercial spaces.
While embracing Vastu in modern architecture presents
many benefits, navigating the fine balance between tradition
and contemporary needs is important. Architects and
designers adept in Vastu principles must navigate the
evolving trends and technological advancements without
compromising the essence of these ancient principles.
Striking this delicate equilibrium can create spaces that
seamlessly blend tradition with innovation, delivering the
best of both worlds.
Guiding you through the realm of Vastu Shastra, Dr
Satinder Malhotra-led Signature Interior Designs
continues to serve as a guiding beacon, offering a profound
perspective on the interplay between design, energy, and
functionality in industrial and commercial architecture. As
the world progresses, Dr Satinder’s integration of Vastu
principles via Signature serves as a testament to this ancient
science’s timeless relevance and adaptability in creating
spaces that resonate with harmony, productivity, and well-
being.
In the pursuit of excellence and efficiency, Insights
Success’s search bore fruit when, in the modern industrial
and commercial architecture, we met Dr Satinder, who is an
invaluable ally in Vastu Shastra—an ally that not only
fosters prosperity but also nurtures a symbiotic relationship
between spaces and their occupants.
Dive in and enjoy the journey!

What are the immersive benefits of the services that you

The immersive benefits of Vastu services provided to clients
can have a profound impact on their living and working
environments. Here are some of the key benefits clients
may experience when working with Vastu practitioners:
Ÿ Harmony and Balance: Vastu principles are designed
to create spaces harmoniously with the natural elements
and cosmic energies. Clients often report a greater sense
of balance and tranquillity in their homes and
workplaces, which can improve overall well-being.
Ÿ Positive Energy Flow: Vastu aims to enhance the flow
of positive energy or 'prana' within a space. Clients may
feel a noticeable increase in positive energy, which can
lead to a more positive and uplifting atmosphere.
Ÿ Health and Well-Being: Properly designed Vastu
spaces are believed to support physical and mental
health. Clients may experience improved health,
reduced stress, and better sleep in Vastu-compliant
spaces.

fosters productivity and creativity. Clients may find that
their efficiency and focus improve in such spaces.

prosperity and wealth. Clients may see improvements in
their financial well-being when their homes or
businesses are aligned with Vastu principles.
Ÿ Improved Relationships: Vastu principles can be used

spaces that are visually pleasing and well-designed,
which can have a positive impact on their mood and
overall satisfaction.

more attractive to buyers, leading to higher resale
values. Clients may benefit financially when selling their

This can contribute to a greater sense of emotional well-

Ÿ Long-Term Sustainability: Vastu principles often

Ÿ Cultural and Spiritual Connection: For clients with

Living or working in a Vastu-compliant space can reinforce
their cultural identity and spiritual connection.
It's important to note that the perceived benefits of Vastu
Shastra can vary from person to person, and not everyone
may experience the same effects. Vastu is a belief system
and should be approached with respect for its traditions
and cultural significance, as well as an understanding of its
place in the modern world.
What were the initial challenges after venturing into the
field you are in, and what are the challenges now?
Overcoming challenges and meeting client expectations in
the field of Vastu requires a balance between tradition and
modernity, effective communication, and a commitment to
providing value and satisfaction to your clients.
Challenges faced in the initial stages:
Ÿ Establishing Credibility: When I started as a Vastu
consultant, one of the initial challenges was establishing
credibility and a reputation in the field. Building trust
with clients was difficult without a track record or
testimonials.
Ÿ Acquiring Clients: Finding and attracting clients can be
a significant challenge initially. Many clients prefer
working with experienced consultants, so getting that
initial client base was a big hurdle.
Ÿ Continuous Learning: Vastu is a complex field, and
staying knowledgeable about its principles and their
applications is an ongoing challenge. Keeping up with
traditional Vastu texts and modern interpretations is
crucial.
Ÿ Balancing Tradition and Modernity: Finding the right
balance between traditional Vastu principles and modern
design and lifestyle expectations can be challenging.
Clients may have varying levels of belief in traditional
Vastu, and reconciling these differences is not always
straightforward.
Ÿ Communication and Expectation Management:
Effectively communicating Vastu principles and

managing client expectations is essential but can be
challenging, especially when clients have specific, and
sometimes unrealistic, expectations.
Challenges faced now:
Ÿ Competition: As you gain experience and establish a
presence in the field, competition can increase. More
Vastu consultants may enter the market, making it
necessary to differentiate your services.
Ÿ Client Expectations: As your reputation grows, clients'
expectations may escalate. They may expect more in-
depth consultations, quicker results, and a higher level
of expertise.
Ÿ Continued Learning: Staying updated with the latest
developments in Vastu and related fields becomes even
more critical. It would be best to continue your
education to provide clients with the most relevant
advice.
Ÿ Client Diversity: Working with a diverse range of
clients with different cultural backgrounds and
expectations can be more challenging as your client base
expands.
Ÿ Scaling the Business: If you plan to grow your
consultancy, challenges related to business management,
team coordination, and customer service may arise.
Ÿ Technology Integration: As technology evolves,
integrating it into your Vastu practice can be
challenging. Clients may expect digital assessments,
presentations, or virtual consultations.
Ÿ Client Management: Managing a growing client base
while maintaining the quality of your service can be a
challenge. You'll need effective systems for client
management and consultations.
Ÿ Marketing and Branding: Building and maintaining a
strong brand and marketing your services effectively can
become more challenging as your business expands.
Ÿ Balancing Tradition and Innovation: Finding the right
balance between traditional Vastu principles and
innovative approaches that align with modern lifestyles
is an ongoing challenge.
The challenges faced by Vastu consultants evolve. While the
initial challenges are often related to establishing a
presence in the field, the later challenges may involve:
Ÿ Scaling the business,
Ÿ Managing a diverse client base and
Ÿ Keeping up with changing client expectations and
industry developments.
Ÿ Adaptability, continuous learning, and effective
communication are key to addressing these challenges.
How do you overcome the challenges you face and meet
the escalating expectations of your clients at the same
time?
Overcoming challenges and meeting the escalating
expectations of clients in the field of Vastu requires a
combination of effective communication, knowledge, and
adaptability. Here are some strategies to help you manage
these challenges:
Ÿ Clear Communication: The foundation of any
successful client-practitioner relationship is clear and
open communication. Ensure that you understand your
clients' needs, expectations, and concerns, and make
sure your clients understand the principles and
limitations of Vastu Shastra. Encourage open dialogue
throughout the project.
Ÿ Set Realistic Expectations: Educate your clients about
what Vastu can and cannot do. Be honest about how
Vastu principles can be applied to their specific project.
Setting realistic expectations from the beginning can
prevent disappointments later on.
Ÿ Thorough Assessment: Conduct a thorough assessment
of the client's space, considering the existing
architecture, layout, and other constraints. This will help
you provide tailored recommendations that align with
the Vastu principles while respecting the practicalities of
the space.
Ÿ Customized Solutions: Instead of applying a one-size-
fits-all approach, customize your Vastu
recommendations to the unique needs and goals of each
client. Consider their lifestyle, preferences, and
priorities.
Ÿ Flexibility: Be adaptable and open to adjusting based on
client feedback and evolving project requirements.
Sometimes, a balance must be struck between Vastu
principles and practical feasibility.
Ÿ Collaboration: Collaborate with architects, interior
designers, and other professionals involved in the
project. Work together to find solutions that meet Vastu
principles and modern design and functionality.
Ÿ Continued Education: Stay up-to-date with the latest
developments in Vastu and related fields. This ongoing
learning can provide you with innovative approaches to
address complex challenges.
Ÿ Case Studies: Refer to successful case studies where
Vastu principles have been effectively integrated into
modern spaces. Use these examples to illustrate how
you can meet your client's expectations.
Ÿ Conflict Resolution: If disagreements or conflicts arise,
be a mediator and a problem solver. Sometimes, clients
may have strong personal beliefs or preferences that
may not align with traditional Vastu principles. Find
compromises or alternative solutions that create a
harmonious space while respecting their wishes.
Ÿ Patience and Empathy: Understand that clients may
have varying levels of belief in Vastu principles. Be
patient and empathetic, and find common ground that
satisfies their expectations.
Ÿ Feedback Loop: Establish a feedback loop with your
clients throughout the project. Regularly check in with
them to ensure that their expectations are being met and
address any concerns promptly.
Ÿ Quality Assurance: Ensure that your Vastu
recommendations are implemented accurately and
monitor the progress of the project to maintain the
integrity of Vastu principles.
By combining effective communication, adaptability, and a
deep understanding of Vastu principles, you can overcome
challenges and meet the expectations of your clients,
creating harmonious and balanced spaces that align with
tradition and modern design.
How crucial Vastu Shastra solutions are in the modern
era, and what innovations are you bringing in this
regard?
Vastu Shastra is an ancient Indian architectural and design
philosophy that outlines principles for harmonious living by
aligning structures and spaces with nature and the cosmos.
While some people believe in its effectiveness and find it
crucial in their lives, its relevance in the modern era is
debatable. The importance of Vastu Shastra and its
applications in the contemporary world can vary from
person to person, and it's not universally adopted or
accepted.
The extent to which Vastu Shastra is crucial in the modern
era depends on individual beliefs, cultural backgrounds, and
personal preferences. Some people follow Vastu principles
diligently, believing that they can contribute to a balanced
and harmonious life. They may incorporate Vastu
recommendations when designing homes or businesses.
Others may not find Vastu to be as relevant or may
prioritize other factors when designing and arranging their
living or working spaces.
In terms of innovations related to Vastu Shastra, several
trends have emerged in recent years:
Ÿ Vastu-Compliant Interior Design: Interior designers
and architects often offer Vastu-compliant design

correctly for your office

prosperity.
solutions. They integrate Vastu principles into the layout
and aesthetics of spaces, such as the placement of
furniture and decor, colour schemes, and lighting.
Ÿ Vastu Apps and Software: There are mobile apps and
software tools available that help individuals and
professionals assess the Vastu compliance of a building
or space. These tools provide recommendations for
improving Vastu in a given setting.
Ÿ Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Design: Many modern
architectural and design practices align with Vastu
principles in promoting eco-friendly and sustainable
building practices. These principles often overlap with
Vastu's emphasis on natural elements, orientation, and
energy flow.
Ÿ Vastu Consultants: People often seek the advice of
Vastu consultants or experts to ensure that their homes
or businesses are Vastu-compliant. These consultants
may use modern technology and analysis tools to
provide recommendations.
Ÿ Integration with Smart Homes: Vastu principles are
being integrated with smart home technologies. For
instance, automation systems can control lighting and
climate based on Vastu recommendations for different times
of the day.
It's important to note that the effectiveness of Vastu Shastra
is a matter of personal belief, and its scientific validity is a
subject of ongoing debate. Many people value adopting
Vastu principles for well-being and peace of mind, while
others prioritize more contemporary design and
architectural practices. Ultimately, the choice to
incorporate Vastu Shastra solutions in the modern era
depends on individual preferences and cultural influences.
What solutions do you recommend for Industrial Vastu?
‘Industrial Vastu or Vastu for Factory and Industry is
where Signature Interior Designers is Unleashing
Sustainable Growth and Success.
Embrace Vastu Principles for Your Factory and
Industry:
In the quest for sustainable growth and enduring success,
businesses are advised to embrace Vastu principles tailored
to their industries. Vastu for Factory and Industry offers a
powerful framework to surmount challenges such as
escalating costs, rapid technological advancements,
evolving customer expectations, and skills shortages. If the
Vastu for the factory is favourable, it will aid its production
quantity and quality performance, reducing the frequency of
machinery failure and workplace disputes. By upholding a
harmonious Vastu, businesses can access timely support and
skillfully navigate obstacles to realize their objectives.
Implementing Vastu principles is a seamless process,
adaptable to the unique requirements of each industry and
manufacturing process, guaranteeing a pathway to
prosperity.
Here are some important Vastu tips for factory and
industry:
Vastu for Plot Shape
The 'Shermukhi' and 'Gaumukhi' plot shapes hold
prominence in Vastu Shastra. Gaumukhi shape is narrow at
the entry point and broadens at the back area, while
Shermukhi is narrow at the back and broad at the entrance.
Shermukhi plot shape is ideal for commercial properties.
The best plot shape for Vastu is square, and if the region is
on a slope, make sure the inclination is from South to
North.
Main Vastu for Factory Entrance
Many Vastu experts believe that the entrance of any
industrial unit is considered the 'archway to victory and
progress in work.' For the factory to make excellent profits,
the main door needs to be large and positioned in one of the
following three directions: East, North, or North-East.
South or South-facing directions should be avoided for
entrance.
Although manufacturing units will inevitably have multiple
entrances, the primary entry is larger and more visible than
the others. They should be on the North, East, North-East or
North-West to allow a quick flow of opportunities and
profits but make the main entrance much larger and more
noticeable than the other entrance. Encourage the personnel
and logistics department to make more frequent use of the
main entrance.
Vastu for Factory Shed, Slope, and Compound Wall
As per plot Vastu rules, an industrial plot that is sloping
downwards to the North or North East is considered to be
the best. This is because the earth's magnetic field flows
from the North-East towards the South-West. A slope
towards the North-East is thus beneficial to take the best
advantage of the magnetic flow. During the day, thick
compound walls facing South-West shield a factory from
harsh and scorching sun rays. The compound wall on the
North-East side of a house, on the other hand, allows warm
and soft sun rays to penetrate.
Similarly, while planning the Vastu for the industrial shed,
do keep in mind that the roof of the shed should slope
towards the North or East for the rainwater to flow.
According to Vastu experts, one should avoid slopes
towards the South or South-West direction.
A compound wall is a must. It is important to remember
that the boundary walls in the South and West of the shed
should be higher and thicker than those towards the North
and the East. The South and West boundary walls should be
thicker than the ones towards the East and the North. The
Sun rotates from East to West via the South and South-
West. The ultraviolet rays are high in the late afternoon and
before sunset, thereby disrupting the energy patterns. Thus,
boundary walls of the North direction and East direction
must be lower and thinner. This will help to absorb the
infrared rays.
Placement of the Factory's Building in the Compound
Usually, the factory is situated within the area such that it
leaves space for a corridor around it, along with space for
the parking lot and vehicle passage. Ensure that the West
and South side compound does not remain vacant, as they

excellent profits, the main door

are most auspicious. Factory locations in the South-West,
South-East, and South zones are the best for Vastu, and it is
a firm belief that they bring maximum business to the firm.
No construction should be done in the factory above the
Brahmsthaan of the plot. It is very important to keep the
North-East area of the compound and the inside of the
premises clean and open or empty.
Ÿ Vastu for Factory Office
Each factory has an administrative office within its campus
where paperwork is handled, factory work is monitored,
and business deals are discussed. In simple words, it is the
lifeline of the factory. According to Vastu, for an office in a
factory, you must position it in either the West or South-
West direction. Generally, the owners' office is best placed
in the South for gaining name and fame or the West
direction for profitable income. Also, set the workstation of
the owner or top manager so that they face North or East
without obstructing a door, window or balcony behind the
workstation. Accounts, computers, etc., should be North-
facing and placed in the South-East, East or North region.
The office door should be North-East, South-East, or North-
West region—no windows or doors in the South-East
direction.
Ÿ Temple placement Vastu for factory
Every factory should have a little temple of its own. The
preferred directions for a Pooja room are the North-East,
East, and North. These directions are promising and will
bring good fortune to the owner. A Pooja room or a temple
in the North-East corner brings many blessings to the
factory as this is the zone of Lord Shiva. Try to start the
day's work after offering prayer. Avoid cluttering around the
temple. Keep it neat and clean. Don't forget to keep a lamp
in front of it to attract good energy.
Ÿ Heating and Electrical Controls inside the Factory
Every factory, regardless of their type of manufacturing,
either uses heat for production or produces heat due to
production. Thus, any such equipment that withstands high
heat must be kept in the South-East zone of the factory.
Doing so reduces the ill effects of the Vastu on the factory
by minimizing the risks of encountering accidents and
machinery breakdown. Control panels, electrical meters,
furnaces, transformers, generators, boilers, etc., and other
equipment involving heat energy should always be kept in
the South-East direction as they represent the fire element
in a factory. According to Industrial Vastu, the welding area
of your factory should either be in the South or the South-
East corner. This is essential for the smooth operation of the
factory. Do not install a chimney of the factory in the
North-East corner. The advisable location for the main
power point place is the South-East direction, or the next
best place is the North-West. If both direction locations are
not possible, choose other directions like South or West.
The ideal generator placement, however, should be in the
North-West of the industrial shed. A generator is also
electrical equipment, but its purpose is to provide electrical
backup in case of an electrical breakdown. Thus, the ideal
generator location should be in the North West of the
industrial shed, as per Vastu.
Factory Machine Placement
Machinery and equipment are major elements of the
industry sectors. If not installed properly, it can result in
mishaps such as improper operation, unexpected accidents,
a sudden increase in regular maintenance, and so on. As a
result, it is extremely crucial to position the machinery in a
favourable direction.
The following aspects should be considered:
Ÿ Heavier machines should be placed in the South, West,
or South-Western part. This will improve the factory's
performance and result in fewer repairs.
Ÿ The placement of lighter machines should be in the
North-West or South-Eastern area. The North-East
corner should be kept empty and clean. Any placement
of machinery in this direction should be avoided.
Ÿ Never keep heavy machinery or heavy goods in the
Brahmsthaan of the plot.
Ÿ The machinery should be positioned so that the
manufacturing procedure always flows clockwise.
Ÿ Use the North or North-West corner to place packing
equipment, machines, and tools.
Ÿ Vastu for staff cabins
A small factory might have five to ten staff, whereas a large
factory might have over 100 staff. However, it is not the
number of staff that decides the staff cabin placement. The
role of the staff member determines the location of the staff
cabin. The East direction is considered the best Vastu
direction for the administrative area as it is the direction of
the dominant sun, and it sharpens the person's
administrative skills. The South-West direction is an ideal
place for a technical machine operator. This direction will
pave the way for the technical operator to upgrade his skills
over time.
Ÿ Vastu for Factory Toilets, Bathrooms and Septic
Tank
The number of toilet units required is determined by the
size of the factory's workforce. According to Industrial
Vastu for factory guidelines, the bathroom area must be in
one of three directions: East-South-East, West-North-West,
or South-South-West. A toilet or a septic tank in a factory is
used to dispose of the waste solids and liquids. Thus, the
ideal locations for a septic tank and toilets in Vastu are the
South of South West or the West of North West.
Ÿ Placement of Tube-well or Bore well as per Vastu:
Water pumps, Bore-wells, Underground Water Tanks,
Pumps, etc., are best located in the North-East area only.
This direction supports the water element representative of
growth and opportunities. On the contrary, overhead water
tanks represent the earth element. Therefore, they should
ideally be placed in the South West or West zones and avoid
North East zone for the same.
Ÿ Storage Houses for Raw materials and Finished
goods: The Storeroom of the Factory should be in the
South or West direction. The Storeroom may extend
from South towards the West. It is best to place all the
raw materials in the West zone of the factory. This will
greatly assist the continuous flow of goods in and out of
the factory.
However, if dealing in liquid, it is advisable to store
towards the North or North-East. Place the finished goods
storage facility in the North-Western corner of the
manufacturing campus. This will assure good Vastu for the
factories and facilitate speedy shipping, resulting in
increased profitability. The North-West zone possesses the
air element and shares the Vayu Tattva, thereby maintaining
the finished goods. Do not store a scrap from the factory for
long; rather, sell it.
Ÿ Factory Vastu Colors
Colors like beige, off-white, and grey give manufacturing a
professional feel. Rich, muted tones of dark blue are also
highly appropriate, according to the 'Vastu for Factory
Shastra'. The walls of the industrial shed have a cerulean or
navy blue colour that gives them an industrial air.
Different brown hues, such as walnut or chocolate, can give
industrial offices a cozy atmosphere. Darker hues like black
or teal can also give the office a more upscale appearance.
Visitors like investors are made to understand the
importance of the work being done within the workplace.
Ÿ Vastu for Labour Quarters in the Factory
Because a factory's success relies primarily on its
employees, significant consideration should be given to the
placement of the labour quarter. A small factory might have
five or six employees, but a large plant might have
thousands working in key aspects, such as the
administrative area, security room, and labour quarters. It is
best to construct the labour quarter towards the South-East
corner of the shed. This is because the fiery energies of this
direction will keep the labour motivated and energized to
perform well. For the guard room, the South of the South-
East is ideally suited.
Ÿ Parking Area for vehicles as per Industrial Vastu
Parking spots should be divided into categories for heavy
and light vehicles by Vastu for factory regulations. Heavy
trucks should be parked outside the factory. They should be
positioned in the South or South West if there is ever a need
to install them inside the production area. Parking for
scooters and other lightweight vehicles should be done to
the North-West. Parking should, therefore, be avoided on
the North-East side.
A Wave of Positivity and Success
Vastu plays a significant role in the prosperity of a factory
or industrial property. A successful factory can bring wealth
and success, enabling you to live the life of your dreams.
Many successful business ideas have failed due to
inappropriate industrial Vastu planning. To make good
profits, follow the Vastu Shastra for the factory and take all
necessary precautions. Make it a must to consult a Vastu
specialist before creating the layout of your factory.

shops, showrooms, and sales outlets, if Vastu is considered
professional, it increases sales and profits.
Important Vastu Tips for Shop/Showroom
As a commercial shop owner, you must know all about
Vastu for the shop. Follow these guidelines and tips to gain
maximum benefit from your retail shop.
Ÿ How to Purchase a Shop/Showroom
When purchasing a new commercial space, the first thing to
consider is the locality. Avoid a shopping complex or
commercial building near a temple, graveyard, hospital,
police, or crematorium. Another important point to
remember is that there should not be a large tree or any
electrical transformer at the front of the shop/store/building.
The flooring slope towards the North-East is excellent. If
there is an elevated South floor, you can expect good
business. West floor elevation makes you peace in business,
can able to answer for the competition.
Ÿ Main Entrance of Shop/Showroom
Ensure that the entrance to your shop is in the North-
East or East direction. This would help you in attracting
the maximum number of prospective clients. The entrance
must be clean, clutter-free, and wide, as it is considered a
welcoming sight for customers. The entrance should be free
from all obstructions like trees, statues, poles, and products.
Avoid having any drain flowing in front of the entrance as it
causes loss of wealth. Also, avoid stagnant water or door
sills, allowing easy positive energy flow.
~ Shop-specific directions as per Vastu
Ÿ Stationery shops: Stationery shops should face the
West direction. West signifies fulfilment and gains,
leading to greater profits.
Ÿ Furniture shops: Furniture shops should face the
South, as this will give your brand fame. Fame and
name will enable you to attract loyal customers.
Ÿ Grocery shops: As per the principles of Vastu, the
North-Eastern direction is the best for grocery shops. As
a second alternative, East or North can be considered.
Ÿ Clothes shop: The ideal direction for clothes shops is
the South-Eastern direction. The shop entrance should
be in the Southern or South-Eastern direction if you
want to sell high-quality and luxurious brands.
~ Shape and Size of Shop or Showroom
An ideal shop should be or
square-shaped or rectangular
have a front wider than the rear. According to Vastu
Shastra, the ideal shape for a shop (including a boutique,
emporium, departmental store, and showroom) is square or
rectangular. The length of a shop should be less than two to
two and a half times its width, which means a shop with a
width of 20 feet can have a length of up to 50 feet.
However, triangular or irregular-shaped shops or those with
a narrow front and wide rear should be avoided, as they
lead to financial loss and mental tensions. Avoid having a
slope in the shop, as it is considered inauspicious in Vastu
Shastra for the shop. Irregular shapes are good if the North-
East or South-West corners are extended.
~ Vastu for Shop/Showroom entrance
According to Vastu Shastra for the shop, the entrance of a
shop should be in the East, North, or North-East direction.
This attracts more customers. The entrance should be open
and not be blocked with poles, trees, or merchandise stands.
The front of the shop should not face any open drains. The
main entrance door should not have a threshold (unlike in
homes, where it is a must). This can obstruct the positive
energy from entering the shop. Never face the slope of the
shop towards the main entrance as it can drain out the
profits.
If a shop's entrance is in a direction not compliant with
Vastu, then follow these remedies:
Ÿ According to Vastu, the main door for a North-facing
shop should be at the North-East corner of the North
side. The main door can extend up to the centre of the
North side. Kuber, the God of wealth, is the lord of the
North, so it is best for prosperity.
Ÿ Place the main door for an East-facing shop at the
North-East corner of the East side. The main door can
extend up to the centre of the East side.
Ÿ For a South-facing shop, the main door can be at the
South-East corner on the South side. A platform may be
made on the South-West side, and steps for entrance can
be constructed in the South-East-South direction.
Ÿ The main door for the West-facing shop should be
placed at the North-West, up to the centre of the West
side from the North, as per Vastu.
~ Counter of Shop/Showroom
Vastu Shastra states that the counter of a shop or showroom
should be square, rectangular, or angular in shape. A
circular counter at a shop or showroom can lead to financial
losses. So, keep these things about the shape of the counter
at your shop or showroom. In addition, your counter should
be placed in the South-East or South-West direction. It
helps bring prosperity to the business. Keep the counter full
of space to foster profits and prosperity.
~ Cash Counter of Shop/Showroom
Every shop has a cash counter. You must make sure that the
cash counter is always installed in the position where it
can open towards the North direction. If the shop also
has a cash or locker room, then it should be installed in the
South-Western portion of the shop.
Vastu Shastra states that your cash counter of the shop or
showroom should be placed in the North direction. As the
North is the residing location of Lord Kuber, the God of
Prosperity, having the cash counter in the North direction
may bring financial prosperity to the shop or showroom. In
addition, you should never keep your cash counter empty of
cash. If your shop or showroom has a locker room, then
make sure it is in the South-West direction with it opening
to the North direction.
~ Heavy Furniture and Showcases at Shop/Showroom
According to Vastu Shastra, the most suitable direction to
keep showcases and heavy furniture is the South-West
direction. It is good for prosperity in the business. On the
other hand, having heavy furniture or showcases in the
North-East direction can lead to losses in the business. The
shop's centre or the Brahmasthan must be clear and free of
clutter or hindrance.
~ Seating of The Owner
The shop owner should sit inside the shop and should face
the East or the North direction. Sitting in the correct place
attracts better business opportunities and stimulates
expansion. The owner should never sit facing the South or
the West, as it can cause problems in the business.
The cashier should sit in the South-East direction.
~ Mandir or Temple
The ideal Vastu direction for a temple in a shop is the
North-East direction or East or North corner of the shop. To
earn high profits, you can even consider the West direction.
You can also have the auspicious swastika in the shop
written with Shubh-Laabh. According to Vastu Shastra for
the shop, the direction of the pictures or statues should be in
the North-East so that you get strength and spiritual
satisfaction. Don't keep the idols of Goddess Lakshmi and
Lord Ganesha to the right of the North-East direction. The
day should be started with a prayer and mild incense stick
lighting for good vibes.
~Raw Materials Placement
Raw material related to your business should be kept
properly and requires much care. The heavy stuff and raw
materials should be placed in the South-West direction of
the store as per Vastu Shastra for the shop to bring good
luck. Hot-selling items are best placed in the North-
West, the quadrant of air which aids movement. A display
of products or samples can be placed in the North-East
zone. This attracts quality buyers to the store. In a shop, if
you want to create a loft or mezzanine, do not place it on
the North or East wall. It is highly inauspicious. You can
make them in the South or West wall.
~Electronic Equipments

electronic equipment
shops, like computers, televisions, refrigerators, and
microwaves, then it would be better to keep all these
gadgets in the of your showroom for

shops.
~ Sign boards or Banners
Sign boards and banners are an important part of your
branding strategy, which can influence footfalls or the
number of people that come to your store. Choose North
West direction for sale promotion techniques such as
display boards, banners, and Colors these sign boards
should also be in sync with the direction from which they
are read/viewed. For example, a white or grey sign will
work better for shops with an entrance in the North-West
corner, whilst those with an entrance in the North should
use blues, blacks or greens.
~ Shop Vastu for stairs
In a multi-storied shop, construct a staircase in the South or
South-West. Ensure you do not create one in the shop's
centre as it may lead to financial losses. For West-facing
shops, stairs should be towards the North-West. In North-
facing shops, place steps towards the North-East. In South-
facing shops, steps should be towards the South-East.
Staircases must be painted in subtle colours. Avoid blacks
and reds. Vastu for internal staircases states that the steps
should be in odd numbers. All staircases must be built in a
way that the person climbing them goes from North to
South or from East to West. Any other movement is
considered to be negative and against the principles of
Vastu Shastra. Avoid circular steps.
~ Location of Storeroom or Basement and Trail Room
The storeroom and the basement should be in the South or
West of the compound. A good place for your trial room in
a clothing store is on the West side.
~ Vastu for Shop Toilets
Based on Vastu principles, the toilet should be located in the
North-West or West corner.
~Shop Interiors and Decor
Ÿ Vastu for shop suggests using either marble or wooden
flooring only and avoiding granite.
Ÿ The most designated spot for sofas in a boutique or
jewellery shop is on the North or East side. When
people visit a shop or an office, they're likely to end up
at the reception, where they'll make their first
impression. It should be located in the East or North-
East corner of the space and have clean lines with some
positive energy. The receptionist should also face them
when talking or at work.
Ÿ The shopkeeper should keep an aquarium with golden
fishes and place this in the North or East. The shop can
be decorated with small plants, which are considered
pleasing and add positive energy.
Ÿ To attract money in the shop, keep a lucky bamboo in
the South-East zone.
~ Tips for placing mirrors
Place mirrors in a shop so that they reflect the positive
aspects of the Vastu. Please place them in front of cash
drawers to amplify and attract cash inflow. One can also
keep a mirror inside the locker to reflect the cash. Clean the
mirrors regularly and keep them stain-free. Mirrors
symbolize the water element due to their reflective
properties. Thus, mirrors must be placed about the water
element- in the North, North-East, or West direction.
Mirrors should never be placed in the fire zones, and the
South and South-Eastern directions must be avoided.
*Put on Mild Music in Your Store
According to Shastra for the shop, mild music played
Vastu
in shops is a good way to keep negativity away. It helps
create positive vibes and brings a smile to people's faces.
Ensure the songs are easy on the ears and not loud, as that
can distract your customers (Loop music is preferred).
Ÿ Keep It Well-Lit
One of the most important Vastu tips for the shop is to
ensure good lighting. Proper lighting is important since
dark corners and areas in commercial shops breed
negativity.
Ÿ Don't Keep It Dirty
Keeping the neat and clean is another essential principle in
Vastu Shastra for the shop. A dirty shop looks bad but also
attracts negative vibes, which leads to low sales and
reduced earnings. Therefore, keeping it clean is vital.
Ÿ Water Fountain Placement
A unique way of attracting customers is to decorate it with
new and innovative techniques. Vastu suggests that water
fountains should be kept in the North-Eastern direction.
This direction should be clutter-free, as it is bad for
business.
Ÿ Use the Right Colours
According to Vastu Shastra for the shop, the ideal colours
for a shop or showroom are soothing and light colours. In a
shop, you must keep the ceiling a lighter shade than the
colour of the walls. Colours like brown, dark blue, or black
are considered inauspicious. You may also opt for white,
off-white, or silver white in the shop's East, North-East, and
South-West directions. The use of soothing Vastu colours
for shops can help maintain financial stability.

space arrangements.
~Vastu for Corporate Offices
Vastu Shastra is of prime importance while planning the
interiors of corporate offices. The challenges commonly
faced in offices are low productivity, lack of teamwork, lack
of employee coordination, etc. To counter the said
challenges and even more, the office should be designed in
compliance with Vastu Shastra. A Vastu-compliant office
paves a smooth way for better efficiency of employees,
improves teamwork, and results in better productivity,
which in turn brings the desired growth for the office.
~Office Vastu tips to boost positive energy
Vastu experts recommend certain guidelines when
designing an office space to attract positivity and good luck,
as discussed below:
*Office Direction As Per Vastu
North, North-East, or North-West facing directions are best
suited for the office. These directions are considered
auspicious for office spaces and beneficial for the
employees. In order of importance, the North direction is
highly favourable as it is the quadrant of Kuber (the Lord of
Wealth), attracting financial growth. The second best
direction for office is East; it is the direction of energy as
the Sun rises in the East and accelerates growth. The East
direction is perfect for the service industry. Thirdly, you can
go in the North-West direction for the office.
~Vastu tips for office entrance
The entrance to the office should face North, North-East, or

orientations are auspicious and offer positive energy. The
North direction is regarded as the lord of wealth's direction.
It will also assist you in boosting financial profits.
*Placement of Doors and Windows of the Office
The entrance door of an office should face towards North or
East direction. Windows at North-East corner brings
development, strength, happiness, prosperity, luck, and
work made easy. Windows at East brings us name, makes
work easy, and gives us health. Windows at North bring us
prosperity, money flow, and happiness. Windows should be
very large on the East, North and North-East sides.
The centre of the shop or
the Brahmasthan must be
clear and free of any clu er
or hindrance.

direction of Kuber (the God of wealth).
~ Vastu Tips for Office Cabins and Bosses' Cabin
Ÿ Owners and Managers Cabin
According to Vastu, for an office, the owner's cabin should
be in the South-West direction. Generally, the owners' office
is best placed in the South for gaining name and fame or the
West directions for profitable income. The Vastu direction
for the work desk is South, West or South-West. At the
same time, the desk should be angled in such a manner so
that you face the North-East while working. Ensure there is
no obstruction so that sunlight can flow in, enhance the
workspace, and keep you refreshed. Facing the North or
East while working is very auspicious and makes you feel
fresh. North is a direction of Kuber, the God for money
while having a trading work business.
Directors, Managers and Executives must sit in the corner
of South, West or South-West directions to encourage the
workforce to make better decisions. People in leadership
roles needed to face the North-East direction with their
cabin in the West direction of the workplace.
Ÿ Employees Seating Arrangement
Workplace employees must sit in the Eastern or Northern
direction of the workplace as it encourages productivity. It
is a big no for the employees to sit under a light beam
directly so that it can be covered with a plastic/wooden
board.
~ Vastu tips for office decor items
As per Vastu Shastra, certain decorative items for offices are
known to bring lots of good luck and prosperity to the
occupants. Some of these items are listed below:
Ÿ To attract good fortune, keep the money planted in the
North direction.
Ÿ In the office, keeping an aquarium in the North-East
direction enhances wealth flow in the business.
Ÿ The laughing Buddha statue in the office should be
placed towards the main door or diagonally opposite the
front door on a corner table to attract good fortune.
Ÿ Hang a painting of seven running horses, which signifies
success and power. Ensure that the horses are odd in
numbers and that the painting does not depict the Sun or
water.
Ÿ Greenery represents air, as per Vastu. So, hang green
paintings on the East or North side of the office.
Paintings depicting green fields or forests attract growth
and better career opportunities.
Flowing water signifies the flow of wealth and positivity in
the surroundings. A water fountain in the office will help to
reduce stress and also give power. Keep fountains in the
North for career growth. Avoid placing fountains that flow
outward at the office entrance.
~Vastu tips for office electrical equipment and machines
The electrical equipment and related items must be placed
in the South-East direction of the office building. South-
East directions are also suitable for placing electrical
appliances in the pantry or the kitchen. According to Vastu,
the generator, electric meters, and transformers should be in
the South-East corner only. Weighing machines should be
kept in the North-West or East. Keep printer scanners,
servers, Wi-Fi routers, and camera monitors in the South-
East zone. Always keep the A.C. in the West or North
direction of your room. Avoid placing them in the South-
East or North-West direction as it can bring negative
energy. If an air conditioner (A.C.) is placed on the South
wall of a room, it may result in a loss of business. The best
place for TV, as per Vastu, is the South-East corner.
~ Vastu tips for office lights
Lighting, when designed according to Vastu, can create a
warm, inviting, and energetic office space. Ensure the office
has ample natural light, as sunlight is associated with
positive vibes. To have a successful and fulfilling career,
bright lights should be in the South zone. There should be
no glare on the computer screen. An adequate level of
lighting at the workplace helps to avoid feelings of
tiredness and lack of concentration. The amount of light
falling on an individual's workstation should never be
excessive in the case of general lighting, as it can create a
bad effect. Overall, the office should have soothing
illumination. Also, the main entrance of the office and
reception area should be lit up well with attractive light
fixtures, according to Vastu, to invite good energy.
~Vastu tips for the reception at the workplace
The reception of any office should be built in the North-East
or East direction. The receptionist must be seated facing
North or East. The logo or the company profile should be
on the Southern wall of the reception area. Make sure you
are aware of the right office table direction as per Vastu.
The reception table should be placed diagonally to the front
door of the office. French lavender or green jade flowers
can be kept in the reception area. You can also keep a four-
leaf clover plant at the entrance.
~Vastu for office Mandir or Pooja room
One can design a Pooja room in the office and follow some
Vastu tips to invite financial growth for the business. The
temple direction in the office should be in the North-East
corner. When placing these god idols in an office space, one
should consider the Vastu guidelines. One of the best
locations for keeping idols of deities is the reception area.
Keep these idols in a designated place inside the office,
away from everyday work-related items. Vastu experts state
that the Ganesha idol can be placed at the entrance, but the
back of the Ganpati idol should face the office's main
entrance. Try and always keep the temple clean and
decorate it with fresh flowers and incense. Do not position
the oil lamps or diyas facing the South direction as it is
considered inauspicious and results in loss of wealth.
~Vastu tips for pantry/canteen area at the workplace
The pantry should be in the South-East direction. It should
never be located in the North. At any cost, it should not be
located in the North. The walls of the pantry can have
colours like light blue or green, and plants can also be kept
in the pantry. As per Vastu, your refrigerator should be
placed in the South-West corner of the kitchen. This enables
the flow of positive energy.
~Vastu tips for washrooms at the workplace
Washrooms are considered to have bad or negative energy.
So, it is very important to get the placement of the
washroom right. The washroom should be in the West or
North-West direction. Washrooms should never be in the
East, North-East, or South-East directions.
~Vastu tips for the staircase at the workplace
The staircase can be constructed in the South or South-West
direction. According to Vastu, spiral staircases should be
avoided, as they are considered imbalanced and can affect
the positive energy in the office. Office staircases should be
ideally painted in light colours and not in black or red
colours. There should be no staircase in the centre of the
office, as this can lead to a financial drain. Plants can be
kept on the corners of each step. Staircases, according to
Vastu, should have an odd number of steps.
~Vastu tips for installing elevators/lifts
According to Vastu experts, elevators in an office should be
installed in the North or East directions, while the North-
East and South-West directions should be avoided at all
costs. Do not install lifts exactly in front of the main
entrance, as it will flush out the positive energy from the
space.
~Vastu Shastra tips for choosing wall colours for the
office
Ÿ Blue: This colour makes the overall aura cheerful and
full of positive vibes. You can use this colour for the
Southern wall.
Ÿ Green: Use different shades of green colour as it is
beneficial for professional relationships. Paint the
South-Western wall green to promote harmony in the
office culture.
Ÿ White: Use shades of white, cream and yellow in
South-East, East, North-East and North-West corners
and walls.
Ÿ Red and pink: Usually, office interiors are not painted
in red and pink tones, but if you want, you can use these
colours on the Southern walls.
Always use bright colours for the wall paint and décor, as
they spread positivity, reflect light, and keep negative vibes
at bay.
~Vastu tips for placing plants in the office
Vastu Shastra encourages the use of plants in the office as it
brings freshness and calmness. Indoor plants are mainly
used and must be taken care of.
Ÿ Tulsi (Basil): Scientifically, it has been observed that a
Basil plant outside the house keeps infections and illness
at bay. Not forgetting the auspicious value and the
immense medicinal value it has, it is a must in every
office space.
Ÿ Snake Plant: This plant, though, does not flower but has
firm and thick leaves that bring positivity and release the
space of negative vibes. It brings togetherness and
oneness and makes the decisions robust and achievable.
Ÿ Lucky Bamboo Plant: The Bamboo plant is commonly
seen in most offices and is now taking Shape as a gifting
solution, too. Vastu Shastra also encourages the placing
of this plant on the table to bring luck and peace.
Ÿ Peace Lily: Peace Lilies promote adaptability, can
survive in a moderate climate, and are content if
minimal light criteria are met.
~Vastu tips for conference/meeting rooms
According to Vastu, the best direction to have a conference
or meeting room is the North-West. This direction is also
suggested for marketing and sales staff, as they require
motivation for improving their performance. You can also
plan a waiting room in this area.
~Vastu tips for choosing office furniture
For North-facing workstations, things like files, documents,
and electronic appliances like computers must be kept on
the left side of the table. If you have a home office, the ideal
table direction, as per Vastu, is the South-West corner. East-
facing workstations should have storage space on the right-
hand side. Never eat food at the workstation or desk, as it
disrespects work. The best direction for cabinet placement,
according to Vastu, is the South-West direction. As per
Vastu Shastra guidelines for office, the North direction is
ruled by the God of wealth, while the North-East direction
indicates a person's financial health. You can keep a mirror
or Kuber Yantra in the North direction or on the Northern
wall of the office to ensure good financial health. The ideal
locker direction, as per Vastu, should be such that it has its
back to the Southern wall and its door opens towards the
North. The North direction is supposed to be occupied by
Kuber, the God of wealth.
For the office, it is better to use steel furniture, according to
Vastu. If you use wooden furniture, ensure that the sides
and edges are rounded and not sharp. Use light colour
polish on the wooden furniture. According to Vastu, the
office chair should be comfortable and spacious, with good
arm and lumbar support, and should have a high back.
According to office Vastu, for promotion, add a red touch to
the chair. White chairs or white cushions are beneficial
overall. Vastu says to avoid using iron chairs in the office.
Never use an upholstered chair with discoloured or faded
fabric or a broken chair, as it is inauspicious. It is better to
repair or change it.
~ Shape of office desk
Workstations or desks must never be L-shaped or any other
irregular shape as it may create confusion and delays in the
delivery of work. Business owners, especially
entrepreneurs, must ensure that their desk is rectangular or
square-shaped and made with a superior grade of wood.
Avoid tables with glass tops or metal tables, as these are not
considered lucky for growing businesses.
~Office Vastu: Placement of office files on the shelf
Ÿ South-West: Files related to purchase and estate should
be kept on the South-West side of the South wall. Files
about income tax, raw materials, stores, and personal
files can be stored in the South-West direction.
Ÿ North-West: Files related to sales files, finished goods,
pending bill receivables files, litigation, and import and
export files should be kept in this direction. One can
keep the Shares files in the North-West corner of the
North wall.
Ÿ South-East: Accounts files must be stored in the South-
East direction as per office Vastu guidelines
Ÿ North-East: Avoid piling up finished goods in the
North-East direction, especially in front of the office
desk. You can place these goods in the North-West
direction to ensure smooth clearance of unsold stock.
A Door to Prosperity
Vastu Shastra, if done correctly for your office space, can
bring about business abundance and prosperity. Vastu
Shastra for office must be followed with faith and
considered a study encompassing all the myths of following
these rules. This study goes back to ancient times when
studies were based on the position of natural resources like
light, water, and wind and hence is the most obvious study
to be proved. Many studies have evolved with the progress
of science and technology, but a feel and implementation of
Vastu Shastra for your office can never fail you.
~Vastu for Hotels | Resorts | Restaurants
The purpose of a hotel or resort is to serve leisure and
relaxation, bundled with a happy stay and good food,
topped up with outstanding hospitality. Thus, the prime
focus is laid down on designing a space that ensures
absolute rejuvenation. First and foremost, the space should
have a positive entrance to attract abundant customers.
Then, the location/direction of the elements, such as the
building area, reception, bar area, restaurant, spa, play area,
swimming pool, green belt, etc., should all be decided as
per the principles of Vastu Shastra. Either of the elements
placed wrong can badly affect the customers' inflow.
As far as possible, opt for a rectangular or a square-shaped
plot. South, East, and North are considered very auspicious
for any hotel building, especially the South direction,
because of a very special vibration that they produce. North
of East or East of North is an ideal place to construct an
underground water tank and bore well without intersecting
the energy diagonal emanating from the North-East corner
at 45 degrees. The ideal location for the kitchen is in the
South-East, with the stove and fire appliances placed in the
East of the East quadrant. The staircase will be either in the
West or South quadrant and should be constructed
clockwise. Water has magical properties and can enhance
the positivity in any plot, provided it is situated in the right
direction. The best place for a swimming pool would be in
the North-East or the North quadrant of the building. To
balance the fire element in the plot from a Vastu
perspective, a substation or a transformer must be made in
the South-East quadrant. If that is not possible, North-West
is also an alternative for its placement. The reception should
be towards the North-East, the accounts area towards the
South-East, the owner's office in the West, the marketing
and sales team towards the East, etc. While planning the
hotel, utmost care is to be taken while deciding the
placement of brand boards and the colour schemes for the
interiors. These aspects are often ignored but can play a
major role in the brand's success if placed in Vastu's
preferred direction.
If the principles of Vastu Shastra plan all the activities
mentioned above, the clients are satisfied, increasing
popularity.
~Vastu for Hospitals | Medical Centres | Pathology Labs
The prime objective of any hospital or clinic is to serve
healing to the patients. If the healing objective is fulfilled,
the said hospital is considered successful. Only when a
patient is fully recovered and satisfied does he spread the
word, come back next time when in need, and even refer his
friends and family to that hospital. Thus, when
implementing Vastu solutions in a hospital space, the major
thing to be considered is that the hospital delivers "Healing"
in the best possible way. The North or North-East direction
of the plot should be checked and balanced well. Utmost
care should be taken that this direction is not defective by
any means, i.e., a toilet, septic tank, pantry, etc., is not
placed in this direction. This direction is the one that
represents the quality of healing and should be utilized for
the sitting of doctors. It has been observed that a doctor
sitting in the most preferred direction delivers the best
advice, and patients recover much more quickly with their
prescribed medicines. Apart from this, the location of the
ICU, Pharmacy, Operation Theatre, Reception, etc., must
comply with the principles of Vastu Shastra. Also, the
colour schemes should be chosen per Vastu to promote the
vibration of healing in the space.
~Vastu for Schools | Vastu for Colleges | Vastu for
Educational Institutes
Schools, Colleges, and Educational Institutions are meant to
deliver the best education and build students' futures. Thus,
when designing a school, as per Vastu Shastra, the focus
should be on the directions responsible for imparting
quality education in the best possible way. South West and
West of South-West are the prime directions responsible for
maintaining the aura of the space to ensure quality
education. Thus, while designing a school, these directions
should be kept free from negative elements like toilet
blocks, septic tanks, or any colour schemes not compliant
with Vastu Shastra. The location of classrooms, science
laboratories, library, play area, swimming pool, music
rooms, etc. should be planned as per Vastu Shastra. Also,
the colour schemes should be decided in compliance with
Vastu Shastra. For educational institutes, the classrooms for
students preparing for competitive examinations should be
planned in Northern directions. In the case of existing
buildings, do not break for the sake of Vastu Shastra, as
with the developments, treatments without demolition are
well effective if implemented under the able guidance of
learned Vastu professionals. Just by relocating the correct
activity and placements as per Vastu Shastra, Vastu can be
implemented to bring magical results.
~Vastu for Banks | Vastu for Financial Institutions
A bank or any financial institution is meant to serve the
purpose of lending money or keeping the money safe and
also earning some bucks on the deposited money. Vastu
must be considered in detail while designing any financial
institution. Starting from the placement of the Cash Counter
or Teller area, which is of utmost importance since all
financial transactions occur here. The placement of cash
counting machines, documents, seating of accountants, etc.,
are to be in the best possible direction available. It is
preferred to be in the South-East, North, or West for
maximum benefits. Secondly, the placement of Vault or
Locker is again a major focus area and should be
mandatorily chosen with precise calculations under the
guidance of a highly skilled Vastu professional. Placement
of Vaults or Cash counters in the negative direction can
hugely impact the financial institution. Not only limited to
this but the entire premises should be designed in a Vastu-
compliant manner, including placement of brand boards in
the correct location, allocating rooms as per work profile in
specific directions to comply with Vastu principles, the
choice of colour schemes, the placement of documents,
location of toilet/pantry, etc. This allows a smooth cash flow
on the premises and benefits the customers and the financial
institution.
~Vastu for Rejuvenation Centres | Wellness Clinics
The techniques of Vastu Shastra also apply to Wellness
Clinics, Salons, beauty parlours, and Spa Centres and have
proven to be very effective in increasing customer footfall.
Many things need to be checked and complied with the
principles of Vastu Shastra. Starting from the entrance,
which should have a highly positive vibration so that the
customers entering the place feel elated and opt for availing
the services. The cash counter must be placed in the right
direction as the conversion/business happens there. South-
East or North is the preferred direction for the cash counter.
The placement of promotional offers, schemes, and price
lists is highly important and must be placed in the North or
North West to attract customers to avail of the offers. Also,
even the direction where products are placed for sale must
be chosen as per Vastu Shastra. The placement of brand
boards in the correct place, as per Vastu, further adds to the
brand building, and the salon earns a good name and fame.
At all times, care should be taken to prevent any important
activity like cash counter, selling products, owner sitting,
etc., in the low energy areas, which are defined as per the
shape and orientation of the property. Also, the placement
of mirrors and the choice of colour schemes while planning
the space's interior should be absolutely in sync with Vastu
Shastra.
Under the proper guidance of learned and experienced
Vaastu professionals, every direction in any commercial
space can be very well utilized to serve the best possible
attributes. We unknowingly create challenges for ourselves
by not complying with the guidance of Vaastu Shastra that
the universe has designed. Renovation or reconstruction are
not always required to make a space Vaastu complaint. It is
always said - to work smarter, not harder. Just as a
psychiatrist or a doctor tunes our brain to a positive
frequency, so we feel happy and relaxed, similarly,
programming the vastu of any space can solve many of the
problems we think we have in life. Vastu correction
techniques don't need any demolition or reconstruction to
get the results. Our world-renowned Vastu consultants have
revived closed businesses and programmed them to become
renowned brands quickly.
In conclusion, Vastu Shastra has a significant impact on
commercial spaces, influencing their success and
profitability. Whether you're starting a new venture or
seeking to enhance an existing one, the principles of Vastu
can play a vital role in achieving your business goals.

Modern

Architecture
Opportunities
for
and
Shubh-Laabh n the landscape of modern Indian architecture, the revival of
IVastu Shastra marks a pivotal juncture—a resurgence that
beckons both challenges and opportunities. “Shubh” and
“Laabh,” the quintessential essence of auspiciousness and prosperity,
encapsulate the aspirations and potential hurdles that Vastu Shastra
faces as it endeavors to transform the contemporary architectural
canvas of India. Amidst a quest to blend ancient wisdom with
modern demands, Vastu Shastra navigates challenges while seizing
opportunities to redefine and elevate architectural paradigms.
The Cultural Resurgence: Vastu Shastra’s Journey in Modern
India
Vastu Shastra, an ancient Indian architectural science rooted in
cultural heritage, reemerges as a beacon guiding modern
architectural endeavors. Its foundational principles, encompassing
the harmonization of energies, balance, and auspiciousness, present a
compelling narrative for architects and designers seeking holistic
design solutions. However, the integration of Vastu Shastra into
modern Indian architecture presents a journey fraught with
challenges yet ripe with opportunities for transformative change.
Challenges Confronting Vastu Shastra’s Integration
The revival of Vastu Shastra encounters a series of challenges that
warrant nuanced navigation. Contemporary architectural practices
often clash with traditional Vastu principles, posing hurdles in
seamlessly merging the two paradigms. The reinterpretation and
adaptation of Vastu for modern needs while retaining its essence
pose a delicate balancing act. Moreover, misconceptions and rigid
interpretations of Vastu sometimes impede its integration, leading to
skepticism among architects and clients.
Reconciling Tradition with Innovation: Opportunities Ahead
Despite the challenges, Vastu Shastra presents an array of
opportunities to revolutionize modern Indian architecture. Architects
and designers equipped with a deep understanding of Vastu’s
principles have the chance to pioneer innovative solutions that
harmonize tradition with innovation. The adaptive nature of Vastu
opens doors for creating spaces that resonate with cultural rootedness
while embracing contemporary sensibilities and technological
advancements.
Reshaping Architectural Practices: Leveraging Vastu for Holistic
Design
The integration of Vastu Shastra offers a unique opportunity to
transcend conventional architectural boundaries. Strategic
orientation, spatial arrangements, and material selection guided by
Vastu principles can create environments that foster well-being,
33 | November, 2023 | www.insightssuccess.in
productivity, and prosperity. The emphasis on natural
elements, energy flow, and sustainability aligns seamlessly
with the global push for eco-friendly and human-centric
design.
Educational and Cultural Shifts: Advocating Vastu
Awareness
An essential aspect of harnessing Vastu’s transformative
potential lies in fostering awareness and education.
Initiatives aimed at demystifying Vastu’s principles,
dispelling myths, and encouraging open dialogue among
architects, developers, and clients are crucial. Bridging the
gap between traditional wisdom and modern practices
involves advocating for an informed approach that respects
Vastu’s essence while adapting it to contemporary needs.
Collaboration and Innovation: Shaping the Future of
Vastu-Inspired Architecture
Collaborative efforts among architects, academia,
policymakers, and cultural institutions can pave the way for
the evolution of Vastu-inspired architecture. Encouraging
research, innovation, and interdisciplinary collaborations
allow for a progressive dialogue that steers Vastu towards a
harmonious integration within the contemporary
architectural discourse.
The Evolutionary Leap: Adapting Ancient Wisdom to
Contemporary Needs
What sets apart the evolution of Vastu Shastra in industrial
and commercial architecture is its adaptive nature.
Architects and urban planners are adeptly reinterpreting
Vastu principles to suit the exigencies of modernity. This
evolutionary leap encapsulates the fusion of ancient
wisdom with cutting-edge technologies, sustainable
practices, and evolving design sensibilities. The marriage of
tradition with innovation manifests in architectural
solutions that not only honor heritage but also cater to the
dynamic needs of a globalized, technologically-driven
world.
Global Resonance: Vastu’s Influence Beyond Borders
The allure of Vastu Shastra transcends geographical
boundaries. Its principles of harmony and energy flow
resonate universally, appealing to corporations and
individuals seeking spaces that inspire success and growth.
Consequently, Vastu-inspired designs have made notable
inroads into diverse cultural landscapes, gaining recognition
and adoption in industrial and commercial projects across
continents. This global resonance underscores Vastu’s
relevance and adaptability in a multicultural, cosmopolitan
world.
Navigating Challenges: Balancing Tradition with
Innovation
Despite its universal appeal, the integration of Vastu Shastra
in global industrial and commercial architecture presents
challenges. Architects must navigate the delicate balance
between honoring cultural heritage and accommodating
diverse beliefs and practices. Striking this balance involves
fostering a nuanced understanding of Vastu principles while
ensuring their integration seamlessly complements modern
design requirements, without imposing rigid constraints.
A Journey of Synthesis and Evolution
In the pursuit of “Shubh-Laabh,” Vastu Shastra embarks on
a transformative journey—one that necessitates a synthesis
of tradition and innovation. Challenges posed by
misconceptions and rigid interpretations stand juxtaposed
with opportunities to reshape architectural narratives. The
future of Vastu in modern Indian architecture hinges on a
collective endeavor—a convergence that honors heritage
while embracing the dynamism of the present, propelling
architectural innovation towards auspiciousness and
prosperity.
Pioneering a Harmonious Future
The evolutionary trajectory of Modern Indian Vastu Shastra
in industrial and commercial architecture signifies a
pioneering movement—a convergence of heritage and
innovation. Architects and designers spearheading this
revolution stand at the precipice of creating spaces that
transcend the mundane—a realm where tradition
intertwines elegantly with modernity. As this renaissance
unfolds, Vastu Shastra emerges not just as an architectural
philosophy but as a catalyst, shaping a future where
industrial and commercial spaces resonate with harmony,
efficiency, and prosperity—a testament to the enduring
legacy of ancient wisdom in the contemporary world.

With its core philosophy centred around balance and alignment, Vastu Shastra presents a holistic approach to designing spaces. In an era where functionality meets aesthetics, incorporating Vastu principles in industrial and commercial architecture offers numerous benefits. It advocates for the seamless integration of natural elements, ensuring a balance between a space’s physical and metaphysical aspects.

  • 17. to their industries. Vastu for Factory and Industry offers a powerful framework to surmount challenges such as escalating costs, rapid technological advancements, evolving customer expectations, and skills shortages. If the Vastu for the factory is favourable, it will aid its production quantity and quality performance, reducing the frequency of machinery failure and workplace disputes. By upholding a harmonious Vastu, businesses can access timely support and skillfully navigate obstacles to realize their objectives. Implementing Vastu principles is a seamless process, adaptable to the unique requirements of each industry and manufacturing process, guaranteeing a pathway to prosperity. Here are some important Vastu tips for factory and industry: Vastu for Plot Shape The 'Shermukhi' and 'Gaumukhi' plot shapes hold prominence in Vastu Shastra. Gaumukhi shape is narrow at the entry point and broadens at the back area, while Shermukhi is narrow at the back and broad at the entrance. Shermukhi plot shape is ideal for commercial properties. The best plot shape for Vastu is square, and if the region is on a slope, make sure the inclination is from South to North. Main Vastu for Factory Entrance Many Vastu experts believe that the entrance of any industrial unit is considered the 'archway to victory and progress in work.' For the factory to make excellent profits, the main door needs to be large and positioned in one of the following three directions: East, North, or North-East. South or South-facing directions should be avoided for entrance. Although manufacturing units will inevitably have multiple entrances, the primary entry is larger and more visible than the others. They should be on the North, East, North-East or North-West to allow a quick flow of opportunities and profits but make the main entrance much larger and more noticeable than the other entrance. Encourage the personnel and logistics department to make more frequent use of the main entrance. Vastu for Factory Shed, Slope, and Compound Wall As per plot Vastu rules, an industrial plot that is sloping downwards to the North or North East is considered to be the best. This is because the earth's magnetic field flows from the North-East towards the South-West. A slope towards the North-East is thus beneficial to take the best advantage of the magnetic flow. During the day, thick compound walls facing South-West shield a factory from harsh and scorching sun rays. The compound wall on the North-East side of a house, on the other hand, allows warm and soft sun rays to penetrate. Similarly, while planning the Vastu for the industrial shed, do keep in mind that the roof of the shed should slope towards the North or East for the rainwater to flow. According to Vastu experts, one should avoid slopes towards the South or South-West direction. A compound wall is a must. It is important to remember that the boundary walls in the South and West of the shed should be higher and thicker than those towards the North and the East. The South and West boundary walls should be thicker than the ones towards the East and the North. The Sun rotates from East to West via the South and South- West. The ultraviolet rays are high in the late afternoon and before sunset, thereby disrupting the energy patterns. Thus, boundary walls of the North direction and East direction must be lower and thinner. This will help to absorb the infrared rays. Placement of the Factory's Building in the Compound Usually, the factory is situated within the area such that it leaves space for a corridor around it, along with space for the parking lot and vehicle passage. Ensure that the West and South side compound does not remain vacant, as they For the factory to make excellent profits, the main door needs to be large and posi oned in one of the following three direc ons: East, North, or North-East.

No construction should be done in the factory above the Brahmsthaan of the plot. It is very important to keep the North-East area of the compound and the inside of the premises clean and open or empty. Ÿ Vastu for Factory Office Each factory has an administrative office within its campus where paperwork is handled, factory work is monitored, and business deals are discussed. In simple words, it is the lifeline of the factory. According to Vastu, for an office in a factory, you must position it in either the West or South- West direction. Generally, the owners' office is best placed in the South for gaining name and fame or the West direction for profitable income. Also, set the workstation of the owner or top manager so that they face North or East without obstructing a door, window or balcony behind the workstation. Accounts, computers, etc., should be North- facing and placed in the South-East, East or North region. The office door should be North-East, South-East, or North- West region—no windows or doors in the South-East direction. Ÿ Temple placement Vastu for factory Every factory should have a little temple of its own. The preferred directions for a Pooja room are the North-East, East, and North. These directions are promising and will bring good fortune to the owner. A Pooja room or a temple in the North-East corner brings many blessings to the factory as this is the zone of Lord Shiva. Try to start the day's work after offering prayer. Avoid cluttering around the temple. Keep it neat and clean. Don't forget to keep a lamp in front of it to attract good energy.
  • 19. Ÿ Heating and Electrical Controls inside the Factory Every factory, regardless of their type of manufacturing, either uses heat for production or produces heat due to production. Thus, any such equipment that withstands high heat must be kept in the South-East zone of the factory. Doing so reduces the ill effects of the Vastu on the factory by minimizing the risks of encountering accidents and machinery breakdown. Control panels, electrical meters, furnaces, transformers, generators, boilers, etc., and other equipment involving heat energy should always be kept in the South-East direction as they represent the fire element in a factory. According to Industrial Vastu, the welding area of your factory should either be in the South or the South- East corner. This is essential for the smooth operation of the factory. Do not install a chimney of the factory in the North-East corner. The advisable location for the main power point place is the South-East direction, or the next best place is the North-West. If both direction locations are not possible, choose other directions like South or West. The ideal generator placement, however, should be in the North-West of the industrial shed. A generator is also electrical equipment, but its purpose is to provide electrical backup in case of an electrical breakdown. Thus, the ideal generator location should be in the North West of the industrial shed, as per Vastu. Factory Machine Placement Machinery and equipment are major elements of the industry sectors. If not installed properly, it can result in mishaps such as improper operation, unexpected accidents, a sudden increase in regular maintenance, and so on. As a result, it is extremely crucial to position the machinery in a favourable direction. The following aspects should be considered: Ÿ Heavier machines should be placed in the South, West, or South-Western part. This will improve the factory's performance and result in fewer repairs. Ÿ The placement of lighter machines should be in the North-West or South-Eastern area. The North-East corner should be kept empty and clean. Any placement of machinery in this direction should be avoided. Ÿ Never keep heavy machinery or heavy goods in the Brahmsthaan of the plot. Ÿ The machinery should be positioned so that the manufacturing procedure always flows clockwise. Ÿ Use the North or North-West corner to place packing equipment, machines, and tools. Ÿ Vastu for staff cabins A small factory might have five to ten staff, whereas a large factory might have over 100 staff. However, it is not the number of staff that decides the staff cabin placement. The role of the staff member determines the location of the staff cabin. The East direction is considered the best Vastu direction for the administrative area as it is the direction of the dominant sun, and it sharpens the person's administrative skills. The South-West direction is an ideal place for a technical machine operator. This direction will pave the way for the technical operator to upgrade his skills over time. Ÿ Vastu for Factory Toilets, Bathrooms and Septic Tank The number of toilet units required is determined by the size of the factory's workforce. According to Industrial Vastu for factory guidelines, the bathroom area must be in one of three directions: East-South-East, West-North-West, or South-South-West. A toilet or a septic tank in a factory is used to dispose of the waste solids and liquids. Thus, the ideal locations for a septic tank and toilets in Vastu are the South of South West or the West of North West. Ÿ Placement of Tube-well or Bore well as per Vastu: Water pumps, Bore-wells, Underground Water Tanks, Pumps, etc., are best located in the North-East area only. This direction supports the water element representative of growth and opportunities. On the contrary, overhead water tanks represent the earth element. Therefore, they should ideally be placed in the South West or West zones and avoid North East zone for the same. Ÿ Storage Houses for Raw materials and Finished goods: The Storeroom of the Factory should be in the South or West direction. The Storeroom may extend from South towards the West. It is best to place all the raw materials in the West zone of the factory. This will greatly assist the continuous flow of goods in and out of the factory. However, if dealing in liquid, it is advisable to store towards the North or North-East. Place the finished goods storage facility in the North-Western corner of the manufacturing campus. This will assure good Vastu for the
  • 20. factories and facilitate speedy shipping, resulting in increased profitability. The North-West zone possesses the air element and shares the Vayu Tattva, thereby maintaining the finished goods. Do not store a scrap from the factory for long; rather, sell it. Ÿ Factory Vastu Colors Colors like beige, off-white, and grey give manufacturing a professional feel. Rich, muted tones of dark blue are also highly appropriate, according to the 'Vastu for Factory Shastra'. The walls of the industrial shed have a cerulean or navy blue colour that gives them an industrial air. Different brown hues, such as walnut or chocolate, can give industrial offices a cozy atmosphere. Darker hues like black or teal can also give the office a more upscale appearance. Visitors like investors are made to understand the importance of the work being done within the workplace. Ÿ Vastu for Labour Quarters in the Factory Because a factory's success relies primarily on its employees, significant consideration should be given to the placement of the labour quarter. A small factory might have five or six employees, but a large plant might have thousands working in key aspects, such as the administrative area, security room, and labour quarters. It is best to construct the labour quarter towards the South-East corner of the shed. This is because the fiery energies of this direction will keep the labour motivated and energized to perform well. For the guard room, the South of the South- East is ideally suited. Ÿ Parking Area for vehicles as per Industrial Vastu Parking spots should be divided into categories for heavy and light vehicles by Vastu for factory regulations. Heavy trucks should be parked outside the factory. They should be positioned in the South or South West if there is ever a need to install them inside the production area. Parking for scooters and other lightweight vehicles should be done to the North-West. Parking should, therefore, be avoided on the North-East side. A Wave of Positivity and Success Vastu plays a significant role in the prosperity of a factory or industrial property. A successful factory can bring wealth and success, enabling you to live the life of your dreams. Many successful business ideas have failed due to inappropriate industrial Vastu planning.

  • 30. ~Vastu for Hotels | Resorts | Restaurants The purpose of a hotel or resort is to serve leisure and relaxation, bundled with a happy stay and good food, topped up with outstanding hospitality. Thus, the prime focus is laid down on designing a space that ensures absolute rejuvenation. First and foremost, the space should have a positive entrance to attract abundant customers. Then, the location/direction of the elements, such as the building area, reception, bar area, restaurant, spa, play area, swimming pool, green belt, etc., should all be decided as per the principles of Vastu Shastra. Either of the elements placed wrong can badly affect the customers' inflow. As far as possible, opt for a rectangular or a square-shaped plot. South, East, and North are considered very auspicious for any hotel building, especially the South direction, because of a very special vibration that they produce. North of East or East of North is an ideal place to construct an underground water tank and bore well without intersecting the energy diagonal emanating from the North-East corner at 45 degrees. The ideal location for the kitchen is in the South-East, with the stove and fire appliances placed in the East of the East quadrant. The staircase will be either in the West or South quadrant and should be constructed clockwise. Water has magical properties and can enhance the positivity in any plot, provided it is situated in the right direction. The best place for a swimming pool would be in the North-East or the North quadrant of the building. To balance the fire element in the plot from a Vastu perspective, a substation or a transformer must be made in the South-East quadrant. If that is not possible, North-West is also an alternative for its placement. The reception should be towards the North-East, the accounts area towards the South-East, the owner's office in the West, the marketing and sales team towards the East, etc. While planning the hotel, utmost care is to be taken while deciding the placement of brand boards and the colour schemes for the interiors. These aspects are often ignored but can play a major role in the brand's success if placed in Vastu's preferred direction. If the principles of Vastu Shastra plan all the activities mentioned above, the clients are satisfied, increasing popularity. ~Vastu for Hospitals | Medical Centres | Pathology Labs The prime objective of any hospital or clinic is to serve healing to the patients. If the healing objective is fulfilled, the said hospital is considered successful. Only when a patient is fully recovered and satisfied does he spread the word, come back next time when in need, and even refer his friends and family to that hospital. Thus, when implementing Vastu solutions in a hospital space, the major thing to be considered is that the hospital delivers "Healing" in the best possible way. The North or North-East direction of the plot should be checked and balanced well. Utmost care should be taken that this direction is not defective by any means, i.e., a toilet, septic tank, pantry, etc., is not placed in this direction. This direction is the one that represents the quality of healing and should be utilized for the sitting of doctors. It has been observed that a doctor sitting in the most preferred direction delivers the best advice, and patients recover much more quickly with their prescribed medicines. Apart from this, the location of the ICU, Pharmacy, Operation Theatre, Reception, etc., must comply with the principles of Vastu Shastra. Also, the colour schemes should be chosen per Vastu to promote the vibration of healing in the space.

Also, the colour schemes should be decided in compliance with Vastu Shastra.

Just by relocating the correct activity and placements as per Vastu Shastra, Vastu can be implemented to bring magical results. ~Vastu for Banks | Vastu for Financial Institutions A bank or any financial institution is meant to serve the purpose of lending money or keeping the money safe and also earning some bucks on the deposited money. Vastu must be considered in detail while designing any financial institution. Starting from the placement of the Cash Counter or Teller area, which is of utmost importance since all financial transactions occur here. The placement of cash counting machines, documents, seating of accountants, etc., are to be in the best possible direction available. It is preferred to be in the South-East, North, or West for maximum benefits. Secondly, the placement of Vault or Locker is again a major focus area and should be mandatorily chosen with precise calculations under the guidance of a highly skilled Vastu professional. Placement of Vaults or Cash counters in the negative direction can hugely impact the financial institution. Not only limited to this but the entire premises should be designed in a Vastu- compliant manner, including placement of brand boards in the correct location, allocating rooms as per work profile in specific directions to comply with Vastu principles, the choice of colour schemes, the placement of documents, location of toilet/pantry, etc. This allows a smooth cash flow on the premises and benefits the customers and the financial institution. ~Vastu for Rejuvenation Centres | Wellness Clinics The techniques of Vastu Shastra also apply to Wellness Clinics, Salons, beauty parlours, and Spa Centres and have proven to be very effective in increasing customer footfall.

The placement of promotional offers, schemes, and price lists is highly important and must be placed in the North or North West to attract customers to avail of the offers. Also, even the direction where products are placed for sale must be chosen as per Vastu Shastra. The placement of brand boards in the correct place, as per Vastu, further adds to the brand building, and the salon earns a good name and fame. At all times, care should be taken to prevent any important activity like cash counter, selling products, owner sitting, etc., in the low energy areas, which are defined as per the shape and orientation of the property. Also, the placement of mirrors and the choice of colour schemes while planning the space's interior should be absolutely in sync with Vastu Shastra. Under the proper guidance of learned and experienced Vaastu professionals, every direction in any commercial space can be very well utilized to serve the best possible attributes. We unknowingly create challenges for ourselves by not complying with the guidance of Vaastu Shastra that the universe has designed. Renovation or reconstruction are not always required to make a space Vaastu complaint. It is always said - to work smarter, not harder. Just as a psychiatrist or a doctor tunes our brain to a positive frequency, so we feel happy and relaxed, similarly, programming the vastu of any space can solve many of the problems we think we have in life.
