Vastu Shastra, an ancient Indian science, offers guidelines for designing spaces to enhance harmony and wellbeing. Here’s a comprehensive approach to Vastu-based interior consultation:

Understanding Vastu Shastra

1. Fundamentals: Vastu Shastra focuses on balancing the five elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space) and their energies within a space.

2. Directions: Each direction is associated with specific elements and energies, influencing different aspects of life (e.g., North for wealth, East for health, etc.).

Key Principles for Interior Design

1. Entrance (Main Door):

   • Ideally located in the north, east, or northeast.
   • It should open inward and be well-lit to attract positive energy.
      

2. Room Placement:

   • Living room: Best in the northeast or north.
   • Bedroom: Ideally in the southwest for stability and in the south or west for relaxation.
   • Kitchen: Preferably in the southeast with cooking facing east.
      

3. Color Scheme:

   • Each direction has a recommended color palette.
   • E.g., North: Green, East: White or light blue, South: Red or orange.
      

4. Furniture Arrangement:

   • Avoid blocking energy flow (e.g., by placing furniture in the center of the room).
   • Rectangular or square furniture shapes are preferred.
      

5. Lighting:

   • Natural light is encouraged, especially in the northeast.
   • Soft, diffused lighting is ideal for creating a soothing atmosphere.
      

6. Decorative Elements:

   • Use symbols of prosperity and positivity (e.g., mirrors to reflect light and energy, indoor plants for freshness).
   • Avoid sharp edges and clutter, which can disrupt energy flow.
      

Consultation Process

1. Initial Assessment:

   • Evaluate the existing layout, architecture, and orientation of the space.
   • Understand the client’s lifestyle, needs, and aspirations.
      

2. Design Recommendations:

   • Propose adjustments to align with Vastu principles.
   • Offer suggestions for enhancing specific aspects of life (e.g., wealth, health, relationships).
      

3. Implementation:

   • Work with architects and interior designers to integrate Vastu recommendations seamlessly.
   • Ensure the client feels comfortable and connected with the changes.
